In addition the borrower must have unrestricted access without penalty to the accounts; and if the assets are in the form of stocks, bonds, or mutual funds, 70% of the value (remaining after any applicable costs for the subject transaction) must be used to determine the number of distributions remaining to account for the volatile nature of these assets

I'm conservative by nature and understand the statistics of having to sift through many homes, offers, and deals to the find the right one while sticking to my guns on my criteria.

Its the nature of the game.  

Naturally the other tenants are very concerned about safety as am I.

Their title co will exempt these unrecorded liens in the B Exemptions, and their title insurance is not really free....they hit you with a bunch of other junk fees.The LP is a non issue, as along the underlying lien is cured.Note....the fines for the code violations may be paid but of course you still have to fix the underlying problem.....here, you can’t really pay off the fines without curing the problem first....I’d try to find out the local specific procedures and maybe a lot a few thousand extra to it.
