If you're going against either of those, expect a battle.First stop, IMHO, would be to go into the planning office and have a chat with the planner.

You will have to support that building out of your own pocket while you are renovating and while you are finding tenants to fill it.I suggest that you do not pay utilities, so if utilities are not separated, figure the cost of doing so into your expenses before you decide what you want to offer.You should be able to get a close estimate of taxes from the assessor's office-- taxes will go up when you purchase, but taxes are usually a % of assessed value, so not hard to figure.I suggest you check with the local fire marshall to see if the building needs to be brought up to code.

Also, people with a lot of lean muscle mass need more calories just to support that mass.

Thank you to all for your support and well wishes.

Again thank you for your support and advice.

I think they have a "click to chat" where you can talk to someone.

Just needs to pay child support monthly and filed chapter 13 four years ago.

You need to be sure the value of the property supports the loan.

Looking forward to chatting with you.
