Sometimes I'll take a skinnier deal than at other times depending on the opportunities available.

Our fee depends on the number of units and condition of he property.

Depending on where the land is (county & state), the reason I say you must get rezoning approval, at least in my area, is to change the use of the land from its defined use on the Master Land Use Plan.Suppose you have 11 acres and the house, and you separate the house with one acre from the balance of the tract leaving a 10 acre parcel of vacant land.

Depending on how much is owed and how much the association wants to spend you might have to weigh small claims versus foreclosure versus personal judgement/wage garnishment.
