@De Juan Washington  I would want to do a much deeper analysis on a building that expensive. 

My name is Steve Gregory and I am in the business of helping people who are facing foreclosure escape with as little emotional and financial damage as possible.

It's almost as if ego and emotion kind of comes into play when I think about owning a park with new homes. 

Emotionally I believe she just doesn't want to deal with it.

Options do not "tie up" a property as believed by gurus.Specific language must be used to restrict a title conveyance.The issues of a disguised sale go much deeper now than what Brian mentioned and linked to, old cases are no longer relevant as there are accounting changes, IRS changes, state laws dictating interests acquired and matters of any beneficial interest.

Doing your on ties you deeper into any future claims arising as you orchestrated the  sale, your claims, the transfer, assignment, took the money and split!

I honestly believe the reason I am not part of that crowd is because I am not lazy and rely on my brain not the emotion of making it big or going broke for that matter!
