Come on, Sarah, it's time for the big reveal...

Due diligence revealed that the place needed a serious rehab (roof, toilets, electrical, flooring etc.).

The reveal (the face of the siding) is 6" in "A" and 8" in the other.

All of these projects nearing completion have buyers that never closed for a variety of reasons.

Your victory over them is your own success.Keep a clear head and they will reveal to you their own weaknesses which you can exploit to your own gain.

These issues are primarily the result of the unprecedented disruption now occurring generally in the secondary mortgage market.American Home Mortgage noted that this disruption has fueled concerns in the market regarding credit risk, causing many market participants to suspend the purchase of loans from a variety of originators including American Home.

One thing I didn't mention, is that my mother committed suicide (by gunshot) there in 2009...When my father's dementia started getting more serious, early this year, I hired an elderly-care manager to handle a variety of tasks like getting him to doctors (he wouldn't go with me), and eventually transition him into assisted living, where he is now.I was initially thinking of selling the house to pay for his care, so I discussed it with her.

I want it to encompass a variety of RE situations, but not using the "Real Estate" words as that seems to carry a bit of a used car salesmen feel for some reason.

Most inspections will not reveal anything that you can not see with your own eyes anyways.

Lots of great information here, and many people who are very knowledgeable on a variety of topics, so visit the forums and it'll be very beneficial.
