Frank is right,If you really want to expedite the process of attaining the correct zoning for your property you really need to be politically tied in.

Afternoon to All,I am not too sure if I placed this post on the correct section.

The street number on the building may not correspond to the address listed in the Street Index Number book.For this reason, it is a good idea to check out the addresses of the adjacent buildings, or draw a little map of the area before doing your research so you will have a better chance of pinpointing the correct index number.When you find your address the entry will look something like this:Street No.

A telephone, record form, and a quick survey are your best tools tojohnmichael: to maximize returns on time and effort.

It will not work for every deal of course, but it is certainly a great tool to know about.

Real estate is different than cars, where the lender holds title until you pay it off.JonPlease correct me if I'm wrong.

So if you are purchasing a house for $100,000 and it appraises for $110,000 and you mortgage $100,000 than that is a 100% loan but you already have almost 10% equity built in. 100% loans are great tools with the right property.

They tell you "what a bargain this property is," and then you have to spend $50,000 to correct the property to market conditions, and then the stupid realtor says, "This is why it's $50,000 cheaper."

You're correct.

This will be a really helpful tool down the line.
