I will stop here with a thought on legality:
The law is the last refuge of scoundrels. No offense intended for those who are law practitioners.

Sanchez, I’ve heard of this case. Terrible really! It is extreme and really has more to do with human error, rather than investing. As for me, I would have been treating this case by my day to day ethics not as a RE investorie. I bought the land, so deliver me the land and leave the house. However, I completely agree with JFChan in all other circumstances. The difference is – I think it is still unethical to buy below the market/fair value under some circumstances, and I clearly realise and except that. I don’t need any excuses. This is the way it works. I leave my day to day ethics out of this. As long as it’s legal it’s OK with me. JFChan on the contrary saying it is perfectly ethical to do that and comes up with some nice convincing excuses. The result is the same the state of mind is different.

And so it went on until most had clarified their limits. The interesting thing is that 'grey' areas appear with maturity. Ask a 4 year old the second question and you will receive a definite NO, when they reach about 7- 9 the answer changes to maybe and then eventually to yes at about 10-12.
The most simplistic the the Q and black and white resonse, the more immature (mentally developed) the person. Doesn't say much for fundamentalists of any persuasion does it? - even investors having the age old shares vs property debate!
