I board it with a servicer and pay them to work them out (or an attorney).

I've taken one listings off of it so far and a couple expireds I'm flirting with getting on board. 

One of my properties was converted to a board and care in 2008.

Exposure to heat and cold will cause the floor boards to warp.  

Here's a chart I developed about the impact of area/location on appreciation, cap rates, etc. and how you can identify each area (crime rate, school district, number of board ups):

(b) Conditional use conversion — authorized. (1) (i) In all districts except the R-2, R-4, R-5, and R-6, the Board may authorize, as a conditional use, the conversion of a building for use by more than 1 family, as long as the number of dwelling and efficiency units to be allowed conforms with the applicable principal-permitted-use bulk regulations for the district in which the building is located.

While we were talking to the neighbor lady we asked her about the house on the other side that was boarded up.  

The front door was also boarded over. 

Further, the planning and zoning boards have declined my request for the special permit because one of the 4 units is a garage apartment which doesn't meet code because its detached.  

It's really important that you solve the problem because its regulated by your state board of public health and U.S.
