Shame on me for not investigating further ahead of time. 

Hand a preliminary title report or a title commitment to someone with no back ground in real estate and see what you get . 

Now it can be resolved through a long investigation and fact finding and can be undone, but the process to get your property back is long and hard and the our court system and law enforcement is not set up to just kick whoever has your property our or the tenants that are squatting out immediately, so it in essence further victimizes you the real owner as the process draws out.  

Sit back and let your insurance investigate the claim if any is made.

Therefore, the most anyone should pay for this property is $105,000 Remember, a rule of thumb like the ones above should only be used to quickly and efficiently screen a property to determine if it’s worth further investigation.

BGE will investigate and will cut wires at the pole.

More investigation is needed.

I run into similar stories when helping vets investigate what benefits they are eligible for, which depends largely on the nature of their discharge and time served.

It's a general "rule of thumb" used to quickly evaluate properties and determine whether they warrant further investigation.

I can find you some properties that get more than 1% on paper, but they are in war zones you wouldn't want to invest in and they don't actually make 1% after turnover costs and headaches.If I see a single-family come on the market for $200,000 and I know it will rent for $1,000 a month, then it's easy to say that it may not be worth investigating.
