Specializing in Luxury and Investment Properties.Looking to start a dialogue with like minded individuals from all over the globe.

Great topic @Michael O'Byrne.I had the same internal dialogue two years ago.

The "new" 6 to 10-year old house you're referring to may well have older mechanicals than our newly rehabbed houses.So I'm skeptical on your thesis, though thanks for throwing it out there, it's great to dialogue and discuss.

This is a good idea, and opens up a dialogue with the seller that is often hard to get when you're dealing with an agent.

Fourth, I would start by opening a dialogue with the current tenant and see if he would meet your screening criteria and would even agree to the terms of your new rental agreement.

None of that "check is in the mail" dialogue, and those without bank accounts can pay in cash (or wampum, for all I care just so long as it clears the float!).  

I provided her with MF flooring and painting contractors and a local maintenance guy.The late rent is pretty straight forward...that needs to be addressed on the late rent date and forward and not 30 days later with not discussion with me.We've had good dialogue and daily contact now.  

Can someone please advise me on what my dialogue should exactly be when I speak with the realtor?

I merely posted this to start a dialogue and discussion about people's opinions regarding this information presented to us.

Once you take out the cut & paste responses from the usual Turnkey responders, you still have some great dialogue here.
