[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 655408, member: 1963"] I need a cyber bandaid for my head where I've been banging it against the wall all afternoon. My attorney is in general practice, not real estate law, which is rather arcane up here, especially as regards mobile homes. I spoke Occupational Therapist (OT) a paralegal in a real estate law office this afternoon who told me that she is pretty sure that I can sell the house as is so long as I discolose the fact that the roof needs replacing and that the price reflects that. I will speak to a couple of attorneys on Monday, find out what if anything I need to legally cover my arse, and edited my ad on Craigslist to note that the roof will need "repair/replacement" and lowered the price by a grand. (the price is already very low) Meanwhile, the first buyers called back yet again to ask if *I* knew of anywhere to get a loan with a FICO score of 521. Needless to say, I don't as mine wasn't that low immediately after my bankruptcy and foreclosure. They then asked if I would take a 500 down payment and carry the financing on the place. I had to say "no". Someone else called a couple of hours ago got the details, and will call back after she talks to her husband...FWIW. I have to the beginning of Sept before I have to sweat the roof, assuming nothing springs a leak before then. Just got another call...want to know if I'll do a land contract...sigh...I never knew it would be so hard to get a few grand out of people even when that's a really good deal for a home that's got a lot going for it even with the roof issue.
