One of the neighbors had more or less claimed the house and yard and driveway as extensions of their house. 

Account Closed- good question...I would recommend discussing this with someone knowledgeable in the area you are most interested in: whether it is IRA, notes, or something else.

I'm reaching out to see if any BP'ers are extensively familiar with the Houston market.

They care nothing about home owners or landlords, if they did these process would be clear cut 9 times in 10 and would never require a time extension. 

I have Been listening to some real estate podcasts and it is great to hear others stories but I have been seriously thinking about frowning my knowledge.

Feel free to jump in the community here and also take advantage of the treasure of knowledge here.

I have some knowledge of Fall River but I’m sure there’s someone on here who isn’t more well versed in the neighborhood classes there.  

That person is either very knowledgeable or taking a huge risk. 

I have no wholesaling experience and my knowledge is limited on the topic, but it is something I would like to get into.

She said there is a 60-day window to have the work completed upon closing, but that timeframe is pretty much meaningless because you get an additional 6 month extension every time you pull a permit.
