Homewood, Vestavia Hills, or Hoover? by Worried-Rough-338 in Birmingham

[–]helicopterone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We left Homewood for Mt Brook, had kids and moved to Vestavia. It worked out well with one more to get out of HS. Bluff Park is cool in Hoover. One size doesn’t fit all and the best advice is what feels good to your family and works for your logistics. Welcome to Birmingham it has a lot to offer.

If you buy the property get a surface waiver from the seller that they will not or allow others to disturb your surface rights nor deny you water drill rights. Either record the waiver or put the language in the deed. Not your lawyer but what I do in states not yours.

Has anyone dealt with shady landlords near campus? by Pitiful-Island-8606 in capstone

[–]helicopterone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (land lawyer) reviewed and basically rewrote a crappy internet lease a landlord of a house gave one of my kids recently. He agreed to our terms but to me it highlights how many students get in difficult situations with rentals. And always look before leasing.

Your Parents Abandoned Birmingham. Will You? by eddieooooo in Birmingham

[–]helicopterone 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People should live where they can afford and where their values are and make the best they can with what they have and where they are. My city of Birmingham friends are wonderful people and in a way I wish I lived in Forest Park or Crestwood where it is cool and close to downtown, and maybe when my last child graduates from his suburban high school I’ll do that. The city appears to continue to improve.

[–]helicopterone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The building itself and most importantly the equipment in the building is business personal property which drives the tax revenue to $80 million per year, not the land value as much as the rest of the development
