Subterranean Termites live underground and often go undetected for extended periods of time.

They can extend the rate a few weeks (if needed) near closing but not 10 months. 

I basically wanted 3 estimates. 1) to fix the drive portion (5x9 section) 2) redo the whole thing 3) redo and extend. one guy laughed after he quoted almost 20k to redo when I explained my neighbor just had his done for 8k. even the fix job had one guy quote 3k vs another 1300.

There are so many tricks they can use, and each one, no matter how contrived and absurd, the court would give them another hearing date, thus extending their tenancy, during which of course they paid no rent.The State has already gotten as much as 18 months' free housing for the poor and those who refuse to pay rent, on the property owners' backs, under the eviction moratorium.   

There seems to be a possibility of the evictions moratorium extending past June, at least that's what we read for VA.Both the deals we found say in the description that they have tenants in place and leases are up next year sometime.My question to the Biggerpockets community is if anyone else is experiencing a hesitation in investing tenant occupied properties with the evictions moratorium in place?

I would like to see a new house built in 4 months including finding the land, making sure you can build what you want on the land before you lock up the sale of the land, get blueprints drawn up get the blueprints approved by the building department, break ground and have tenants move in be the end of the 4th month.In Palmdale California in Los Angeles County, in 1985, it took me 18 months to get permit and engineering to extend a super simple kitchen only 6 feet and the cost for the permits and engineering and soil report cost me $18,000.First of all, I don't believe in doing flips and prefer to buy and hold, if you have enough money.

It breaks down the ROI or COC and extends out 27 years.

However they continue to extended the eviction memorandum. 

Few days later, seller says he isn't extending and that the price is increasing (30K higher). 

Eviction moratorium is set to expire June 30th, but I anticipate the Biden administration or individual states will extend it again.
