The problem is being fresh out of college I can't afford to buy land at this time and no one wants to rent to young farmers they are looking for top dollar rent of well established farmers.

It was exciting and a quick deal.It was determined by me, and through some advice received from some others more experienced that I am that this would be a great property to start out with.The combination of a fresh C of O, Section 8, and most importantly a solid house with many newer repairs/upgrades will provide me with a solid foundation to gain experience without overwhelming me.

So, it's a matter of if you want the deal after what the inspections revealed.

I would probably walk away (at a brisk pace) and start fresh for the new year but I would never presume to know your situation.

It baffles me that we have 70% of the fresh water on the entire planet surrounding our state and it still costs so much.

A little searching will reveal some HOA horror stories.

...and another thing, those Big Hotel operations spend BIG $ renovating periodically to keep a fresh, appealing look for their clients.

With OpenSocial I might take a fresh look.John CoreyPS.

Dual agent can not do any thing because of the dual agent agreement: they can not provide suggestions and can not reveal any information about the seller.An independent buyer agent can at least help me negotiate and give me private information if he has any.

We have been active in the "buy-and-hold" model for several years; we have standard contract language regarding inspections (i.e. termite) that if its revealed that additional repairs/treatment is needed, the seller must remedy or the deal could fail.
