I believe that the insurance on the exterior of a condo are covered in your HOA fees, but what about the interior? I'm looking at a condo to buy as a rental. On the seller's info sheet in MLS, they marked N/A for homeowner's insurance. I would assume that you have to carry some other insurance other than what the HOA provides, correct?

I’ve seen this before on short sales also. The remark would say that the seller requests that the buyer pay $xxxx for the short sale negotiator fee. 

I’d be willing to put up the equity as collateral if that’s an option and if it’s necessary. I’ll check out the product you’re talking about. Thanks.

Between my personal residence and a rental property I have about $93k in equity. With decent credit and $200k of annual income (between my partner and I), should it be fairly easy to get a line of credit? If so, in your experience how big of one should we be able to get with the info I’ve given?

Bumping this up there for one more shot at some answers.

Maybe some of these suggestions cover this, but to be more specific... I’m really looking for books that go into how to find clients, what to say in a listing presentation, and just what to be doing and how to get going as a new agent.

Nice job. I’m looking for my first flip now. They’re harder to find than I was thinking they would be.

I’ll definitely do that, but it’s late and I’m working nights right now so I’m up all night. Anyone have any insight on why it’s a conflict of interest until I can talk to my broker?

I got my real estate license mainly for my own investing, but since I have it I would like to put it to use to make some extra money (also for investing). I’m thinking of a strategy to approach fsbo’s first as an investor looking to purchase. Since the vast majority will not be willing to sell at a price in which I could purchase, my next move would be to offer to list their house to help them maximize their net proceeds. My pitch will be to help the seller by providing a solution to help them get their house sold. If me buying at a discount helps them, great. If they want to make more money than what I could offer, then I can help them sell. I don’t think I’m doing anything revolutionary here... has anyone ever successfully used this tactic or anything similar? Any opinions on whether it could work?

I wouldn’t choose to pay higher taxes for any purpose, because the government is the absolute last place that I trust to handle money. They do a terrible job with the money they already have.
