There will be a couple week lag with the bank recording the deed under power to you. 

One's 'why power' is one of the most crucial motivating factors in life.

The property I have has power disconnected, and to connect it back I need to hire a licensed electrician to pull a permit and do the work.

Transformer, well with such low amps, I can find multiple laptop 12v power supplies that'll do.

No worries about pest control & exclusion - large rodents, birds, bats, squirrels, or snakes using the Santa Claus home entry technique.

Without a way to deliver the electricity produced, you have no way to sell the electricity produced.If it were me, I'd look into putting in a well (could be as much as the land is worth) and then, over time, put in a cabin with solar to power the cabin. 

In a C area, you can significantly increase the value and rents of the building with a few badly needed upgrades, just to provide some necessary exterior appeal.The major aesthetic liabilities to overcome are as follows, one at a time... the building sits just a few feet off the street and has a power pole complete with lotsa wires planted super close.

The seller's alternative in this case is to wait for an all cash buyer - or provide financing himself.Third scenario is the seller who wants to get a higher price - higher than market - and uses seller financing to attract buyers who can not obtain financing from outside sources - and who are willing to pay a higher price for a property with "built in' financing.As a purchaser, you should be looking for either (1) the highly motivated seller, (2) a property that can not be financed except by the seller - IF you can fix the problem (hint: a property next to a nuclear power plant is probably NOT a fixable problem!)

I hope anyone reading this sees the power of helping one another and are all motivated to participate more on site.

I need to familiarize myself with terms and techniques specific not only to hard money, but sub-prime, prime and A-paper.
