If thieves feel comfortable completely ransacking a property in that neighborhood, how long will your investment survive if it goes vacant?

Permanent means it survives bankruptcy. 

@Derek Harris is correct though, most banks are not fans of this set-up. 

For example, if a condition indicates that the seller is warrantying the condition of the chattels (e.g. appliances) in the property, using saying that the warranty would "survive and merge" vs "survive and not merge" can be the difference between the seller warrantying the condition of the appliances until the completion of the transaction vs the warranty continuing after that.

Right now the law is tied up in court because many small businesses are suing Houston or Harris county over them for some reason and everything is tied up.

@Allan Smith @Theresa Harris This is what the contract looks like.

@Aiden Harris If your realtors clients are making bank then why can't you do it yourself on VRBO or Airbnb and make more bank?

@Clarence Harris As of now, should be Wednesday October 9th starting around 5:45/6.

There are only 2 ppl in Memphis who might be able to really assist you with this where it would not be a  conflict of interest, Dean Harris with Crestcore and Stephen Akindona.
