Have to pull permits though through the water authority and they come out and inspect for code and set the meters.  

Also reaffirming in the same letter that after a leak is contained, under no circumstances is a tenant authorized to repair the problem itself, to notify the landlord immediately, and that the landlord will have a plumber to repair the issue within 24-48 hours.  

Depends on the Housing Authority you're dealing with.  

So I dont know how to get authorization from the lender if he doesn't have the mortgage # or have his father call in.  

They were marketing pieces designed to get you interested in wholesaling so that you buy whatever training package the author has to offer. 

Does the arministrator have full authority, or limited authority?

The housing authority in my city doesn't care.  

Hi MikeTry contacting the local building/planning authority to see if any code violations are on record,  neighbors typically have allot to say ( mostly biased on what they thought of tenants ),  check  online to see if falls in flood plain area if there are sump pumps in basement good clue of drainage or water table issues,  look online to find previous owners and contact them ( could still hold a note) , see what permits have been pulled through out its history,  if currently claiming new roof and no evidence of permit pulled could be a negotiating point and can always check recorders office to see what documents have been filed against property such as deeds/liens/lawsuits etc   Ask realtor Is property on municiple water/sewer?  

it sounds like you have already had the Seller sign an authorization.  

If the living heirs have the legal authority to sell (may or may not have required probate, depending on your state, and the situation), and you're willing to pay off the full amount due, along with whatever the heirs/owner want....then, yes.
