I have a few clients in the Mount Vernon area actually so maybe when i go to meet with them i'll kill two birds with one stone! 

After the meeting I needed the rest of the day to get my blood pressure back into its normally above average range and to replace my rage with run of the mill anger.

Inventory may not rise but I see potential pressure on the demand.This is a hard subject to follow because every article I read has different data and there doesn't seem to be a clear consensus

I had a stripper pole mounted in the dining room, mounted safes, and an entire closed circuit video recording and alarm system (inside and out) placed by the tenants.

(Currently at day 74 with average solds being in the 50’s)After the first price reduction and showing notifications, I asked our realtor if she could do an open house that weekend hoping to add a little pressure to the new potential buyers to make an offer if they were interested.

In fact, he just forced his planning director to resign out of pressure from the development community, who aren't going to vote for him in the impending reelection next month anyway

A plumber can pressurize the system and tell you if it is holding pressure or loosing pressure due to a leak.  

If the water drips in the window sill, the tenant may never notice there is a drip and the water could rot the wood there, not to mention drip into the wall and cause damage there and on down to the subfloor, etc....If you have ever had a house with a wooden porch floor with a window AC unit mounted above the porch floor, you realize soon enough that it might be a no win situation when it comes to the condensation flowing out of the AC unit :)Catch pan and drainage tubing sometimes are needed ...

Bryan and Jon thanks for the advice, I think that I will tell the bank to prove they have the funds set aside in escrow for closing (supposed to now be 1/03), tell them I will not give them anything and that if they cant close I will cancel the contract, hopefully the buyers (retail buyers) will put some pressure on their people to get it done, or make them switch lenders.

Impacts or winds that blow in the garage door cause major damage (rip off roofs from built up pressure on the inside of the house).One thing that I know a lot of investors don't bother with is flood insurance.
