Sounds eerily familiar to a call I got last year wanting me to buy a package of the 2 apartments, 2 houses in Centerpoint, one or 2 in Pleasant Grove, & one in North Eastlake, & one on Pratt Highway.Minnesota is where the middle man (Luxor Funding) is located.I believe all 3 apartment building on that block was originally owned by older folks but they had sold them before I even touched them. 

They knew what they were doing when they broke in, and they know who owns what on that block.

I have been around the block and have yet to see anyone offer me a HELOC on a NOO.

And 100% of the time it is more of pain for the architect to use stock plans than to come up with a new floor plan from scratch.

i just went through this with a 4 unit property...couldn't get replacement coverage with fuses....however farm bureau insurance did offer me actual cash value insurance ...you could check into them if they're in your area...that being said, i decided it was worth it to upgrade service anyways...it's a pain to fix fuses when you have problems, as they are next to impossible to even find...i switched to individual break panels for all 4 units and also had to move meters and cans while i was at it...be careful...the county will make you pull permits...meaning, if there are old fuses, you may have other things that will need to be updated as well...when you get estimates, make sure the electrician pulls permits and quotes for everything that the inspector will require...half my total bill was for updating other electric issues that the inspector was enforcing since we had to pull permits to install breakers..i'd like to hear what you decide..goodluck, and let me know if you have any questions

I think you have some sort of mental GAAP block buddy.

Sorry to be a pain Josh, but is there an ETA on this?

There is a quote by one of the founding fathers of this country, by a man who signed the declaration of independence, Thomas Paine: "Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it." -- If we are to be a great country (Yes, if) Then we must defend ourselves against our own most dishonest citizenship.

The consequence to the economy is, in my opinion, going to be a protracted, painful recession.

I now live in Florida and won't touch a property built before 1975, and definitely not a house that's not block/brick.
