Banks aren't good sources of money in either of these situations.

Fixing this is going to depend on how bad the affected area is.If there's just some mold spots on a bathroom ceiling, you can kill the mold with some vinegar, or bleach/borax.Bigger mold defects (like deep penetration) might cost you significantly more.If I was in this situation, I'll first get a friend out who knows what he/she is doing for input, then maybe start getting quotes from mold specialists.And you do want to do this as soon as possible - you're right this could affect your health and that of your loved ones

Is there anything I need to be concerned about with "retaliation" in this situation?

I wish I could go into more specific details about your two wholesale deals that flopped, but I don't have that experience (yet), but I do know there is a great deal of info on your situation within the BP site.Best of luck!

This is one of those situations that probably has a lot of moving parts.

Civil liabilities can still be pursued in some situations.

It's much easier to control your situation (and your profit) once you have control of a deal then it is to negotiate something that doesn't yet exist.Hope that helps.Best of luck,Matt

Hi Ben,I am in somewhat of a similar situation as you and would be curious to hear other feedback you get from the rest of the forum.I live in San Diego, and even hitting the 1% rule is next to impossible here.

Its notable because of the scale, but its the same situation as if you or I appeal our assessment.The actual property tax bill is determined by not only the assessed value but also the tax rate.

I have been in the same situation and have learned a lot from my mistakes - we all learn from mistakes.
