Thanks everyone:-
RonB, Pollyanna, Balibule.
It isn't that I don't "want to hear" balidavo's 'advice' certainly there is a long checklist to be checked and double checked - I'm not that stupid!
I can get all that here in the forum, it has been gone over endlessly, it's the nitty gritty detail from people who's experience isn't tainted by a ton of baggage that makes it hard to separate the 'advice' from the rage - and that is the real value.
Gilbert hit the nail on the head "it has more to do with the person itself..the way a person looks at life and lives his/hers life according to it."
NOW - can we close the damn thread - it's getting boring ? :)
Its good to see someone say what could happen if you don't check, check, check
My first go at the market took 5 visit to the noties before I met the real owner of the land.
Lucky I had a good notary, he will not process anything till the owner provides a IMB.
