You can reject for any reason you want but the best reason is due to finding a more qualified applicant.When you inform someone their application is being rejected you never provide the reason.

disclosure laws vary by state and if a private sale or thru Realtors The buyer is generally supposed to verify information

They do not show if the deceased individual owned a house.When I get the basic probate information, I start to drill down into obituary listings and real estate income tax records to determine if there is a house and whether a spouse might still be living there, as well as to glean some basic information about the administrator, i.e. is that person a son or daughter, a distant relative, etc.  

Hello Everyone,I am going through the podcasts and find them really informative.

It also allows homeowners who have damaged houses to finance the rehabilitation of their existing single-family home; Information on housing providers and HUD programs – The Department will share information with FEMA and the State on housing providers that may have available units in the impacted counties.

When I asked the realtor for more information he told me, "All other information is normally provided by the owner during the inspection period once an offer is accepted."

Here are the key data points:Park info  Located in Alabama61 lots25 owner occupied homes18 park owned homes (14 currently rented; 4 currently being repaired and should be rented soon)18 vacant lotsAvg lot rent - $160 (unknown what the market rate is but it doesn't sound like there has been a rent increase in at least a year, maybe more)Avg POH rent - $400Expense ratio - seller claims 26% but I'm estimating 35% for the lots and 50% for the POH'sCity water - individually meteredSeptic - good condition (allegedly); a couple were pumped last year, none this year (no lagoon thank heavens)Seller claims gross income $130k, expenses $30k, and NOI $100kI calculated gross income of ~$135k, expenses of $60k (55% on POH and 35% on lot rentals), and NOI of $75kOther infoMom & pop seller, but park is listed with a brokerPark has been on the market for > 3 years (recent price reduction)Greater metro area stats look goodPopulation = 115kMedian home price = $105kUnemployment < 8%Household income > $40kHousing vacancy ~ 15%Closest Walmart is 7 miles awayFreeway is 1.5 miles awayNumbersMy valuation is coming out about $80k-$100k under the seller's asking priceWith conventional financing I'd be hoping for a purchase price of $500k, $100k down @ 6% over 20 years (not sure if this is plausible or not)Assuming that financing, I'm expecting net cash flow of $40k (after debt service)Upside potential is in raising rent and filling the 18 vacant lotsFollowing the same assumptions above, raising rent $50 (if the market supports it) would change NOI to ~$90k and net cash flow of just over $50kFilling the vacant lots could potentially increase gross rent up to somewhere between $150k-$200k, depending on what the appropriate occupancy rate is for the areaWithout verifying any of the above information (haven't offered anything yet so there's a lot of DD left to do), the deal seems to make sense. 

Good information!

What information do I need to find out prior to buying if I can build condos in this area by demolishing old building?

Would you keep the renter in there using my information provided above.
