    Trabuco Canyon - What's it worth?

    Maybe the owner wants to get rid of it before the govmint seizes it under RICO, or whatever. Also, it seems there are 3 shacks. Is there nothing that can be done to fireproof the houses out there?

    What's an APN? The equivalent of what I would call a tax folio number? Every property in Fla gets one for tax purposes. Or, what I would call a legal description--lot 1, Block 1 etc, or The SW quarter of the NE quarter yadda yadda, section township range?

    What could be going on with my address in Columbus Square?

    Not if it happened after they bought. But they might do something just to be nice. Title insurance fixes stuff that happened before the effective date of the policy.

    Lender found a new market: Mexico

    When I first started working for Chicago Title in '76, I heard stories that they had tried to do business in Mexico and lost their shirts. I have heard nothing to contradict that since. Cubans and others who want to move south, buy in Panama and Costa Rica, especially the later...

    Well, I got it right but for exactly the wrong reason. The owner isn't insane, just easily influenced. The realtor is insane.
