Penny,I am a country boy with some Texas roots.

Is this allowed and what can we do to prevent this?

But I had a hard time finding deals that I could rent out that would not be a negative on my DTI preventing me from acquiring more properties.

Silicon needs the additive to prevent mildew; they do not put it in all of the silicon because of the cost.An oil biased primer and a coat of oil biased paint will do the trick to seal it up, but then the water will sit on the sub floor below flooring.For bathrooms we use vinyl flooring and put silicon where the wall meats the floor and put the molding in to it.

They include a safety switch that *prevents* water leaks.

I am under the impression that if we sub-meter or became unable to pay HOA expenses we then would be moved into those current NC Condo HOA Regulations and someone take over, make decisions to get HOA solvent, force the hand of owners who will not agree to water sub-metering, that in itself would free up money for upkeep and needed preventative issues and improvements which there is no money for now, and get HOA and complex out of the bind it is in before it gets worse.

Chris, I couldn't tell if you're referring to a restriction that prevents transfer of title for 90 days or if it's one that prevents transfer and encumbrance of title for 90 days.

I was told that the sill needs to be re-installed in a different way to prevent this from happening in the future, but I'm not sure how to do that.

I would want 40 years or root of title for condos whichever is less (most condos will only be root of title).

It is my hope that this might allow a better bargaining position with the lender, and prevent the foreclosure from hitting my wife's credit rating, effect a short sale, etc..A mechanics loan has rather specific and constraining time limits, so I'm likely looking at a judgement lien, as I understand it.My question then is: can this be done, by a mere mortal, with limited funds?
