Need advice; not car related

[WILMASBOYL78]

If your lawyer won't represent you in a business negotiation...get a new lawyer! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/bs.gif[/img]

Your house issue is not really that far from being car related...just think about how many guys were faced with a similar decision about selling an old car. Do I fix it up first so it will be more attractive to a buyer?? do I part it out??? do I try to find someone who will buy it 'as is' and then do the work?? It's really the same thing.

As far as selling the house with known issues eg; the oil tank...there may be local statutes or regs that impact that..so a good lawyer would know the rules [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img]

Regarding the CO...I'm not sure that would be an issue, unless the current one expires due to the transfer of ownership??? again, a competent real estate attorney familiar with laws in your state or city would be able to help.

Best advice...get a good attorney or real estate professional who knows the rules and have them come up with a plan to meet your goals. Talk to someone at the local chamber or business alliance for the names of reputable people to help.

Keep in mind, that potential buyers may not be able to secure conventional financing if there are environmental or structural problems that need to be addressed. A cash purchase will most likely eliminate that road block.

Good luck, Wilma
