			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m looking to close on the purchase of a bank owned house today. Yes, another REO. As I always do, I walked through the place with my contractor just to get our thoughts together on the new layout, the scope, etc&#8230; Everything was going sweet &#8211; that is, until we walked down the dark steps to the basement.</p>
<p>Hey banks &#8211; are ya listening? Hey asset managers, it&#8217;s me; you&#8217;re buddy Craig. Here&#8217;s a tip for you &#8211; its OK to winterize, but its pretty stupid to turn off the electricity, especially when you couple no downspouts, a TON of rain with no electricity to run the sump pump. Needless to say, I immediately called the listing agent and told him I&#8217;d have to chop $7500.00 from my offer to compensate me for replacing the furnace, the pumping of the water, and the intense pain and suffering. Over the top? Maybe.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s Lake Mary. I&#8217;ve seen water in basements, but NEVER this much!</p>
<p>Grab you&#8217;re Speedos and check out the pics!<br />
