The buyer's attorney claimed that only one of the two spouses signed the easement.There is a significant water view from their property, near the top of a hill.

If you were not in compliance with the sprinklers AND notified, the insurance co could deny your or anyone else's claim.

Start analyzing deals regularly.

I think that is in the settlement claims phase.

ever make that kind of claim with any substantial amount of money and for any substantial amount of time.To think, I was actually starting to give you the benefit of the doubt...

A little late to the gratitude fest, but like @Kerry Baird above, I am genuinely grateful for the old timers here and the new voices as the collective wisdom of this group is something I tap into regularly.

For example, when most of my development clients started building their portfolios, they picked up properties in areas where at least 1 of 3 things was almost always present: 1) They currently or have previously lived in the area, 2) they have family or friends that attend religious services in the area, or 3) they regularly visit family or friends that live in the area.

If it could do it what it claims to do in a more streamlined and organized fashion, it could be decent. 

I don't have functions where people go to a low or no fee seminar making wild claims and trying to suck them out of 40,000 or more ( talking in generalities not a specific company ).
