An example of how Destiny 98, in the form of Advantage 99,
takes care of it's Michigan properties:

"226 Howland Street (House): Advantage 99TD, property owner, was not present.
Jon Presecan, Code Officer, stated that upon inspection, he found that the house
has been vacant in excess of 180 days, open to trespass which the city has since
secured, deteriorated soffits, fascia and chimney, rotted wood, peeling paint and
broken/missing glass.
Willie Murphy, Hearing Officer, asked if anyone would like to speak on this
particular property. Hearing no comments, Mr. Murphy stated that this property does
represent a hazardous condition in this neighborhood and the community as a
whole;
therefore, this Board will give the property owner 30 days to bring it into compliance
or demolish the structure."

The Salta Group:

The Salta Group - another member of the NTLA - and its owner/president,
Marshall M Atlas, also demonstrates it's sense of community responsibility
in a series of lawsuits brought by the City of Peoria to force the Salta Group
to demolish these properties it is/was holding but not maintaining:

1210 W. Johnson St
1317 W Widenham
1503 W Widenham
3221 N.E. Madison
And more...

This hold-without-maintenance-till-deteriorated-beyond-salvagable-state is a
common, routine strategy among tax lien buyers. In general, they put
nothing into their properties they do not think will promote a sale or what
they are ordered to perform - often necessitated through court action - by
the local municipality.

This was typified in the
Breen episode in New Haven, Conn, when neglectful
ownership on the part of the Breen Corp repeatedly frustrated the local
residents' and municipality's efforts to refurbish properties in
neighborhoods where large blocks of lien encumbered properties had been
bought in an engineered mass sale and then allowed to deteriorate by the
Breen Corporation. A do-it-yourself, private sector induced urban blight.
