I've done close to almost 7 properties now and all my end buyers have been satisfied.

We definitely had a bunch of otherwise very interested buyers at first that weren't satisfied with just me telling them how we did everything required to remove the mold, it was tiny and all that and I never heard back from any of them!

Interest rates are low by historical standards, and we have had a whole generation of people remain as renters (delay household formation) for much longer than similar age-group people have done in the past.

If the remaining properties are staying residential I'd make sure to find out what's happening with the pending properties.

The transferor shall remain jointly and severally liable with the successor landlord to the tenant for such security deposit or prepaid rent, unless and until such transferor transfers said security deposit or prepaid rent to the successor landlord and provides notice, in writing, to the tenant of such transfer of said security deposit or prepaid rent, specifying the name, business address and business telephone number of the successor landlord or his agent within ten days of said transfer.http://www.amlegal.com/nxt/gateway.dll/Illinois/chicago_il/title5housingandeconomicdevelopment/chapter5-12residentiallandlordsandtenant?

As a result, nobody has purchased it and the house has remained boarded up......the city feels that once boards are up, and the house is "winterized", they never would need to pay attention to the house again.......unfortunately, trees cant be winterized, they grow and will do bad things unless maintained. city disagreed....eventually a tree growing at a 45 degree angle on their property decided it wanted to fall because it couldn't support its own weight anymore. the tree fell in the middle of the street onto my house, destroying my cinderblock wall and chain link fence.

Satisfy my curiosity, so to speak.

That is, if you don't cease to use it as a multi-family, the use would remain legal.  

Unless they are an owner occupant, meaning they actually satisfy the requirements to be considered an occupant, they are not considered a "homeowner" for the purpose of Dodd.
