I will keep looking in the meantime I will try my hand.

If it is in yours then likely it is in theirs as well.If it doesn't say in yours then likely it's not in theirs.I can't give legal advice but rather than suffer in silence I would call the landlord and explain you have sensitive lungs and cannot be inhaling in second hand smoke.Second hand smoke is actually MORE DANGEROUS than first hand smoke.The reason is the person smoking the cigarette has a filter before inhaling in and the second hand smoker breathes all the smoke in without a filter.Today's cigarettes are pumped full of chemicals because it is cheaper to make and the burn is faster.The faster the burn the more people will smoke and buy that next pack with a huge mark up.Back in the day smoking was almost all pure tobacco but it is so expensive they use chemicals and very little tobacco today.So in short don't put up with it.

They want it and would like to lease it for us for a 10-yr first option triple net.I have been negotiating with the owner and think we can get the building for $200k and would need to put another $200k into it for improvements to lease.I have not started hard negotiations with leasee (waiting until i get control of building, but will not close until executed lease is in hand) but have casual discussion of $9/sf.So we are looking at cap rates in high teens and a hefty cash flow with paying off the building in 10-yrs.

Now on the other hand, if you have $3k into a house, get one tenant at $300 a month, rent for a year, its free and clear.., Taxes are high in Detroit.

The bank figures out that the property changed hands in the insurance department, so make sure to ad the new person on the deed as additional insured instead of switching it over all together.

In a foreclosure the seller is the trustee or lien holder via sheriff, so if I understand this right, you were at the courthouse or other sale location with cash in hand (LA I believe requires 100% cash the day of the sale) and the seller (trustee or sheriff) "went cold"???

After numerous attempts to get one GC to stop talking, I extended my hand mid-sentence and said, "thanks for stopping by."

Here are a few off-hand and in no particular order:1)The HML will foreclose and you will lose the house. 2)You could agree to sign the house over to the HML using a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure.

If you can jump in and do as much as you can yourself at first you will get a hands on feel for things.

In the other hand, those that do accept to finance want between 30%-50% down.
