At this point It would be just fine if the contractor doesn't have time to do work, but has time to bill out a detailed pre-purchase scope and estimate.Thanks!!

You're not hurt, you did fine!

I had a plumber come out one time and they seen pipe that didnt meet code under the house, but the sewer worked fine.

Tommy, also if the FSBO was a "good deal from the get go", it wouldn't still be for sale.This just sounds silly, just because it made it to the MLS does not mean its not a good deal.It may not be a KILLER deal, but that doesn't mean its not a good deal.ie: I bought a property 4 years ago for 5k down, a 100k property, now its worth 150k+And even just 2 years ago it was still worth about 100k, its only the past 2 years it went up in value.I bought the property off the MLS.I would consider this deal just fine.

Have the attorney look at the suit as to the nature of the claims.The priority of liens depends on state law and the nature of the lien, while a first mortgage usually has priority they could be government claims, taxes and fines that could take priority.

It would need to be treated if it hasn't in the pass 5 years and that should be fine.

I'm fine/not encumbered with the payroll deductions.

If the systems are mostly redone, than $1,000 should be fine.

Unless your in a high risk area or you dont want coverages like vandalism, burst pipes, and wind driven rain then you will be fine.

I think with a higher pet deposit and the higher rent you'll be fine, if they check out.They own their own house and would likely be careful with their dogs destroying their own home, while tenants can just move.
