lol, I was referring a lawyer in cae u did not have one Tarun. let me see if he'll answer this.

sorry the Matthew Palumbo of Stonehill Law please overlook my spelling mistakes

an attorney can explain title defects to you in much better and accurate detail but sometime peoples will have interest in the property from the numerous chain of past owners you likely have. sometimes those people are overlookes or the title was't recorded accurately or they never filed paperwork with the registry. dependong on the type of title your buying you could be liable for those damages and may have to pay off that interest. His is where title insurance comes in handy. however, definetly follow up with a MA attorney and at least let him declare a clear title and facilitate tiltle insurance for your property. 

I would refer Matt Palumbonof stonehill law. 

I just don't to see a new investor get burned and become bitter about investing, it happens too often in our community. If younjave any other questions you shpuld co tavt your agent or if your agent lets you take advice from other agents you can contact me and cc him in your emails. 

Have you tried Loopnet.com ?

Hey Tarun, 

Your agent and attorney should be walking you throught these steps. If it was my deal, I would definitly get Title insurance even if I am buying cash, nothing like losing half your in ROI because someone came out of the woodwork claiming past interest in the property.

      Either way, COngrats on your fist investment property. If you have a moment I would not mind sharing with you my experience with being a landlord and some of the steps I would take to protect my butt with MGL. Your actions will most likely come back to visit you in court if you have to go through the eviction process which you should want to take steps to prevent in the first place.  : )

Thank You Felix, I appreciate it. again let me know when u need a hand and let me know when your partner has some time to sit down over coffee. : )

Sorry, for the misunderstanding. That answer is outside the scope of my knowledge. Hopefully a trustworthy and professional licensed plumber from Boston or Massachusetts can answer that in better detail. 

 Hi Rob,  

  My name is Josh Poitras and have done a few flips. I am not knowledgable on the actual code pertaining to gasfitting but last time I checked it was only legal for Ma licensed plumbers to handle anything that has to do with gas within a dwelling. I ran into this problem when I bought the installation services from home depot, but then they didn't connect my appliances upon delivery. I called to ask why they didn't do it and they said Ma requires Ma licensed plumbers to connect gas appliances. 

   They still took my money. lololol 

Best of Luck I hope that a Ma Licensed Plumber can anwswer your question more accurately.
