Yellow letters???? How should I go about it???
Hello everyone 😊
I recently just learned about yellow letters. My grandfather s house that I would spend summers in has been boarded up since he past away many years ago. Someone purchased the property almost 15 years ago but has never done anything with it. I was interested in purchasing it. My question to everyone is should I mention that it used to be my grandfathers house or should I just pursue it as an investor looking to purchase?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you and Happy Thursday 😊

I would not recommend mentioning that is used to be in the family initially during the conversation. If they find out then they have a better leverage because they know you wont be going to their competition so they dont have to price it to sell. They can always ask for a premium.
