We joke about tenants and trade ideas.I think there is a lot of money to be made in buying and selling homes and it is a very emotional decision for most.

You can send stuff to the attys and follow up with a phone call, they're not emotionally involved.  

That said know your numbers and stick to them, otherwise you can get caught in the emotion and overpay.

Been doing some investigation because the owner is being tight lipped and is pretty emotional.

I'm trying to put emotions aside but new to this...

Have you ever liked anyone's post or does that go against your non-emotional view of the world?

This is the website   I was reading    https://www.nsarco.com/emotional-housing.htmlIt has a paragraph that states Property managers/landlords are NOT required to make a reasonable accommodation under the Fair Housing Act for ESAs or Service Animals in these cases: Buildings with 4 or less units where the landlord occupies one of the unitsSingle family housing sold or rented without a real estate brokerHotels and Motels are not considered dwellings under the FHA but are considered places of public accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities ActPrivate ClubsIf I am reading this right , since I only rent single family homes , and I dont use a broker .

It becomes a relationship so that when the subject of fees come up later on, deciding on whether or not to join is less of a monetary decision than an emotional one.

Hey Nicholas Jones I second the emotion of everyone who replied before me.

Now if you really like the place as you state buy it with emotion, there is no shame in that.
