Update on the property in Memphis: We went there on Sunday and came back next day on Monday.On Sunday we drove around, talked with neighbors, hired the neighbor cleaning up the yard and cut the grass, found a realtor's sign on the next block, called him and he became our agent.On Monday we went to the City for the hearing (the house was in code violation), extended the grace period from the City, hired anther landscaper we found in Burger King (saw his truck on the parking lot and asked the first guy we thought was the landscaper).
