This is why I seek the GC licensure, especially if it is as easy as it many seem in the state of OR.Usually workspace $500< is permit required... is that right?

Seek legal advice, seems like a sticky situation.

The two gazebos that had to be demolished, one of them had a hot tub and toilet in it, not sure if it refers to that or something in the main house.Unfortunately, the time for seeking any sort of variance has passed.

@Jay Hinrichs ...Basically, this is the only company(FNAC)...some information out there, but wanted to know if an BP experience...Local investors believe note buying ended with mortgage crisis...I believe it's viable, but need to make connection with real players.....

The good thing is that the big players are scared of the cycle so there is room for the little guy to make it.

Where should I seek transactional funding for an auction?

You are right Simon, they are all Socialists.They have really wierd stuff in here, I pay socialist taxes to cover healthcare and it costs less than a private healthcare insurance in US.The health cost per capita in US is the highest in the world because it's the best.My wife had to go to the hospital 3 times and did not pay a dime, while sometimes with private insurance you still have to pay a flat fee each time you go there, crazy socialist stuff.My buddy in US had his wife and daughter seek treatment and spent thousands, almost went bankrupt and started smoking, but he likes it.

In one county the estimated loss in value direct due to this legislation is estimated to be $1 billion by the county officials.Some people who do not have mortgages and therefore not required to carry flood insurance might elect to "self insure" ie not carry any flood insurance and put for any flood damages out of pocket.Most of the investors that I have talked to have said that they will stay away from flood zone properties and try to sell the ones they own now as soon as possible before the full force of the insurance premiums kick in.But as a counterpoint one investor told me that he would be seeking out flood zone properties with the idea of buying them at extremely low prices, all cash, with no insurance and rent them out for the cashflow.
