How does the law proceed with protecting people that want to grow?

Hey BP,I just finished reading Financial Freedom with Real Estate investing by @Michael Blank and looking to pick up another book multi family/apartment related.

They either are protected by their receptionist or will not return calls or emails.

Make sure you have the property contingencies in place to protect yourself-  Inspection, loan, appriasal, termite and specific timelines.

Also you may be in code violation for allowing a bedroom in the basement.You need to become more active in protecting your asset.

We had a blast and my kids loved it too, but there wasn't much financial return besides appreciation...time to sell!
