Today, my landlord made his second visit with an "assessor" to review the property as part of "renegotiating the mortgage." He ended up admitting to my roommate that, gee, that assessor? Really a Realtor.
They're weighing their options, my landlord and his wife. I don't blame them - our building is rent-controlled and the rental income doesn't come close to covering the mortgage now that his ARM has reset. I can't think of why anyone in their right mind would buy this place as an investment property, but with a hospital going in right next door starting next summer, I can't think of why anyone would want to buy this place to live in, either.
*sigh*
