"The biggest misunderstanding is that seeing 'Fairhope Single Tax' means a buyer should automatically avoid the property," Lety said. "It should trigger due diligence, not fear. Buyers need to understand the ownership and leasehold interests, applicable documents, financial obligations and financing requirements for that specific property before deciding whether it fits their goals."
