While it certainly may be price (I don't know anything about your area), I agree with Ophelia about the general nature of the pictures -- they don't do the property justice.

There should be restrictive covenants that are filed as a matter of public record, there may or may not be articles of incorporation/organization (which may or may not be filed), there may or may not be bylaws (which may or may not be filed.)The restrictive covenants should describe deed restrictions on the properties in the development and it should be broken into 2 time periods: when the developer is in control of the development (or phase of the development); and, after the developer turns the phase or development over to the HOA.Any articles of incorporation/organization would describe the creation of the HOA, how the HOA is to be operated, who are the initial members of the HOA, etc....Any bylaws would be very similar to the articles - however, they will go into more detail about the day to day operation of the HOA.Is the developer still active with the development, or has it fallen apart?

Used to be, a REO was distressed in terms of ownership, and the discount was less for the distress of the property, and more for the as-is nature of the sale.

I worked in corporate finance for years and there is literally a team of analysts that analyze markets everyday.

Moving to Cleveland to embark on this real estate adventure while most may think is insanity, was very natural for me and I am learning so much here.  

Part of it is probably just my nature, but I'm not someone who dwells on negativity for too long.

I incorporated it into a new drawing with some other improvements for a better layout.
