134 N. Shields has been torn down completely due to the extent of needed
demolition. 601 W. Mountain will be traded for a duplex if all goes as planned.
This trade will be a better deal due to the better condition of the duplex.
Some problems are occuring due to the results of appraisals by Michael Keefe, then
HUD appraises and reduces the price again. The owner's get upset because of
the long wait and then the low offers.
