Lynda, thanks for your short and clear answer.  

If the land is free and clear, it would probably be worth your time.

Hopefully the answer for my specific situation becomes more clear as I move forward in this process.

Probably it's in the Section 8 bible that was mentioned, but definitely make sure you have a very clear understanding of the types of questions and "screening" procedures you can use!

I understand the clouding of the title; that will have to be cleared up.

Must use clear wood - (extremely expensive) and then paint it!

Seller behavior and motivation.Just to be clear.

Also, the contract we signed with all of their requests is full of vagueness, which had been clarified in conversation, but now they are coming back saying different things, interpreting the contract in a way that it benefits them more... ignoring the conversations that we had had.Then there's the electrical contractor who was supposed to "clean up" the handyman wiring in the 1901 house who covered up open spliced wiring with insulation, which I then had to pay another contractor to come and clean up costing me another 800.00.Now, the good news is, as long as the home appraises, I should clear about 26k on the property.

I make it real clear that I’m interested in the feedback and I write it down in my book.

One thing that helped me get the ball rolling was to set clear, specific, measurable goals.
