@Laurie JohnsonEverybody on BP should write their congressmen and senators and tell them how legislation designed as consumer protection has reek havoc of real estate investors trying to sell houses to people who would otherwise not be able to buy a house.Personally I'm too old to go to jail and I don't look good in a monogrammed orange jumpsuit!

@Adam Jernow He honestly indirected my intentions in the first place to write a written agreement.

Start by writing down what those goals are....then write down ways to reach those goals.  

What you have done is extremely impressive you should write a book about it.  

My husband and I started investing 10 years ago and started the same way - by writing a business plan.

If it's a big deal to you, inform your neighbor in writing and keep it friendly.

I look forward to getting to know many of you and finding out how some of my talents may be helpful to the community.

I am positive that the investor has not used that clause before.If I sold the property, would the investor just write me a check for the difference between the amount owed and what was sold?

And, since the earnest money will be held by a party determined by the contract, you could theoretically write a check, send it to your friendly closing attorney as per the contract, and let it sit there uncashed until you close.

What I want to know is should I 1 Donate it to the fire departmen for training and let them burn it down for training (take the tax write off) and put a new trailor there2 Just tear it down and put something else there 3 Rehab it, it will need to be gutted and a new roofMy second question is, The house Im renting is owned by a military guy.
