I have a potential seller that is in failing health and wants to sell 8 homes that sit on about a 1/3 of an acre.

There are the necessities of life. water, food, shelter, health and we need a supply of money to keep them all coming.

The same property can be a great deal, a decent deal or a millstone around your neck with the major difference being measured by 5-6 blocks which no out of town shopper is going to pick up on in a quick trip.That being said I just closed on a legal duplex/off the books triplex that I'm working on getting the 3rd unit legitimate status.

Take care of your health needs too.

I am told by the homepath agent that a fannie mae property is continually hung up in federal court concerning title. He does not provide much more detail other than to say it has to do with court clearing title. ...

Requesting bids, project planning, budgeting, ordering bulky materials are one person, plan maintenance/status (college grad type, technical, organizational, and analytical work) Could this be a VA?

There is some work that needs to be done, some items the previous owner neglected but I'm pretty sure there are laws (health and safety) that are being broken.

They have "complaint civil action" as a case type, the amount, commenced date, and "open" status etc.

For 2nd lien debt buyers, senior lien status is more important than equity.

The local county health department should have a blueprint of the layout.
