My contractor is saying it's not something they can remove even after they re-painted over the top.

What is our best course of action to put her in a position where she can sell the property?

Can I sell my house as a business and market it as such and make more than the appraisal? 

With the VA loan you can transfer it to another service member or veteran and they get to keep the same interest rate, but they would have to come up with the remaining balance (~$235,000).

I’m a hands on type of person so I will be focusing on properties in and around Tampa, Florida so that I can be up close and personal and learn as much as possible.I’m excited to be a member of this community and I look forward to exchanging ideas, strategies, and gaining knowledge from all of you as I dive deeper into this exciting world of investing.

If you want to sell it yourself, you definitely can.

If they were long term I would let them break the lease and if the home was left in good condition then I would return the deposit - now this is just me but you have  alease that dictates specific terms that you can uphold them too or not.It would be ok to ask for the death certificate, and what you could say is its our policy to waive the fee for death but we need a record of it.

Feel free to reach out and we can connect further. 

I can see both sides.

Further, a state that an entity does business in but is not organized in or registered in can declare authority over that entity due to the entity being a “foreign” entity doing business in that state.
