the city i live in (especially under the current mayor) is so anti owner that it is frustrating beyond belief!

Two things happened to cause the delay. 1) In the city of Burlington, when you take possession of a vacant property, it has to be registered with the city as a vacant property.

SEC...They have pdf download of city streets and zoning.

If you would like I can send you a break down on the city by zip code for a reference.

Is reach out to experienced flippers but you guys are contractors and as from what I understand contractors are "the" biggest element in a flip after the purchase of the property.

What would be the best way to basically cash out the biggest on my first deal?

My issues was more on the City having LLC name v/s Title my name confusion. 

I sold my house in Commerce City this year for just under $100k profit.

If I put the money up and place a lien on the house,it's my understanding that before the house can be sold,the lien has to be paid.I'm not worried about the house losing value,because it's in a historic part of the city.

The Health District in my view is bounded by:I-95 to the EastDolphin Expressway to the SouthNW 14th Ave to the WestNW 20th St to the NorthProperties within these boundaries are limited/rare, so while the above is the 'actual area' I also mean the surrounding neighborhoods and streets.The area doesn't have the best reputation in terms of safety (Though there are definitely rougher areas in the city), but it does seem like it a solid rental market - with plenty of jobs nearby.It is also fairly close (Depending on traffic) to Wynwood, Downtown, and Little Havana/stadium(s) and the airport.
