"B closing with A using C's funds" is not permitted any more due to excessive abuse by short-sale flippers.

If it says "no pets/animals shall be permitted on the premises", then you've got a great reason to start your eviction.  

I have a close friend who is looking at purchasing in the Redwood City area.He has found a duplex but it is currently only permitted as single-family home and the seller is not willing to complete the permitting process.My question is: Do you or someone you know, have experience with converting SFRs to duplexes and the cost/time/paperwork involved with that process?

That information needs to be attached to the contract when you wholesale the property along with a disclosure that the buyer will need to get permits and inspections from Code Enforcement to do the rehab.

Also, I'm not familiar with how it works in WA, but is 60 days usually enough time to secure all of your permits, complete a renovation, have inspections done and then resell?

Also asked the realtor where I needed to go to drop off my 1$ earnest money check :)Here's a list of things I want inspected for in this house:Mold, Asbestos, Lead paint, Lead pipes, electrical, plumbing, zoning, permits, setbacks, height limitations, other environmental assessments, land surveyor, pest control operator.Also since this property is close to the beach I called a couple friends who are working on quotes for insurance.I'll keep updating this post as the weeks go on and release more of the property information and other info as well as pictures!

  :)The price of a roof is based on many factors, such as: - size of the roof- pitch of the roof- accessibility of the roof- what kind of existing roofing material (if any) needs to be removed first- what type/quality of new roofing material is going to be installed- how much (if any) sheathing/fascia/etc (if any) needs to be replaced (often this isn't even included in the original bid price because it may not be able to be determined until the old roof is removed)- whether or not the "roofer" is a licensed professional who is bonded/insured and going to follow-through with the proper permits/inspections, or if it's just some guy off Craigslist that does roofing on the sideThe point is, there's lots of variables. 

@Robert Gannon I would be interested, schedule permitting.  

If your schedule permits, check out the BP meetups that happen from time to time.
