Thanks Fred.

Maybe I didn't understand when he told he explain, I understand what you describe. I will discuss it again with my Broker.

I am looking to purchase my first investment property. I found a house I want to make an offer on.

In California, you can put a contingency in the offer. You can put in the offer I will purchase for $xxx dollars contingent on no structure damage. If your offer is accepted and then upon house inspection, you find a problem with the structure you can walk away.

The broker I am working with says in Texas you give the seller a small deposit, no contingency's in the offer. If you find problems with the foundation, you can walk away from the purchase, but the seller keeps the money.

Is that the way it works in Texas? I would think you would get your money back.

Any referrals for a good Tax Accountant for a first time real-estate investor ?

Post: Buying from wholesalers

I am looking for a property to invest in.

I will be funding my purchase with a bank loan. I am pre-qualified for the loan.

Do wholesalers sell to investors that are buying with a conventional loan or do they work on a cash basis only, or are there other ways to buy from a wholesaler?

I know conventional loans take a little time to fund so I don't know if wholesalers want to wait for a conventional loan to close.

Say I find five houses I am interested in. How do I make offers on all five properties at the same time?

What if all 5 accepted my offers, would I be bound to the offers?

Do you have to make a deposit when you make an offer on a property?

FYI: I am in Dallas Texas

Never go any referrals to get my deck repaired because of ground movement.

I need a new pool deck. Either pour a new cement deck ot some other creative ideas to replace the deck.

So no one has had problems with their pool deck cracking ?

What are the benefits of homesteads on real estate?

Is homesteading suitable for investment property & my personal residence?

Thanks
