The vast majority of them are dismissed or settled out of court through the insurance provider. 

Maybe I'll start one after things have settled down more for my mom who I just moved into Assisted Living.

“Hero stuff”… sure but only because I’m doing what I’m doing for my family.2) Integrity and morality years ago… I made a killing… I made great money flipping paper, houses and doing sub-to deals.But after the dust settled I started questioning my financial success……  at the cost of others … for whom maybe after I made a lot more that I expected on a property, I could have sent some of those families a thank you ($$$).I didn’t.More recently I met with a lady who wanted to sell her mobile home and land … it was rough…She wanted.

What are your thoughts about it now that covid is settling down?

I am from NH and hope to settle back there eventually but I will have at least 4 years in NJ.

Typically you should get a refund since the withholding amount doesn’t take into account your basis/cost, but again if you have a gain, at least some of the tax will have been settled through the withholding.- it seems unlikely you would have to make a payment with the 1040NR return because of the withholding on the sales proceeds, unless you have other ECI.- you can validate the accuracy of the filing instructions by independently reviewing the form instructions to make sure the addresses etc are correct.- it’s fairly common for foreigners to pay the IRS by check as it’s notoriously difficult for them to open US bank accounts after the patriot act regulations.

I've seen A LOT of issues with new construction: using the cheapest materials available and cutting every corner possible, gaps between sill plates and walls or around windows and doors that you can see daylight through, offset sewer lines because of settling or someone driving heavy equipment over the line, black mold in the walls, testing positive for meth, foundation settling (harder to see it or predict it with newer homes whereas old ones have already settled) etc. newer definitely isn't always better.

The owner and I could not agree on a settling price.

My realtor is telling me that it is because of the season and everyone is already settled or is on vacation. 

I knew my name would be associated with the house for years to come, and I refuse to settle for anything less than quality even if it meant redoing things that I didn't find acceptable.
