That person over there is from the federal housing department, they want to have a chat.

Hey-  I’m an investor in Philadelphia /Bucks/Montgomery county, 10 doors total. I’ve been looking at a couple places in Norristown pa. I’ve heard bad things about the u and o, just how bad is it ? Almost all the prope...

I currently work for the Houston Fire Department here as well. 

I'm having a heck of a time just getting the code department to do their job on a flip, and it's burning some major pocket holes. 

However, we just learned that the inspector that certified it years lost his license, has no record of it, and neither does the local department of health.

I'd be paying him not via commission but weekly wages as an employee for running numbers, making phone calls to planning department for county/cities, general DD on potential properties, etc.  

@Joshua Zdunich- if you provide a completed  and signed rental  agreement  ( lease)  for the " departing " property - your lender  should be able to  use 75% of the  gross monthly income to offset the property payment 

Ask for the line of credit department and ask them: What rates and terms can you offer me with this FICO score?

Any particular department or just the zoning?

If it were mine, here is what I would do.Call the Police Department (right tnow) and tell them a tenant is threatening suicide (on x date) and ask what to do.Haz Mat cleanup after finding one of these sad endings will be  PITA expense and memory you don't need to live with.If it were mine, and he's lucid and approachable when not drunk, I'd warn him about the drunken fighting behavior and tell him it must stop 100% right now (no more) or he will have to find other housing arrangements, and if need be evict him (and be prepared for a Haz Mat cleanup, carpet replacement, smell abatement, the whole unpleasantness of handling the situation--Police tape, neighbors gathering around, etc...).
