My first big task is trying to understand how the different actors of the financial system (banks /mortgage and loan associations, etc.) will evaluate me at the time of applying for a loan.

That's why access codes that last for just 30 or 60 minutes are much better for self showings - less time for bad actors to get anything done.

With money and stimulus being printed and sent out like it’s candy.. does anyone have any insight or guesses on how the coming inflation will affect real estate debt, land value and general buying power??

Increased paydown on the 25 year am offsets the gain by the 30 year fixed kinda like sex OR candy (see what I did there?

You are planning to transact real estate with a lot of liabilities, you're selling a candy bar. :)Q2 - Depends on how much the seller needs, what you expect for a fee, what the buyer is willing to pay, etc.Q3 - There is no magic formula. 

Today the 2.5-acre studio is a private residence and belongs to actor/musician Jared Leto, who is known for throwing parties with his own type of “atomic” energy.

I understand that Florida was to get some $850 million of the $25 billion allocated for rental assistance in the December Covid Cares Act (or whatever it was called). 

@Chris West The faster you get away from using those tools, the better you'll do...the #1 goal of 90% of these sites is to 1) steal your information 2) sell your information...the bait is just eye candy...and realtor.com has nothing to do with MLS...boards bump Zillow/Trulia and others routinely...as a profession, these sites erode agents integrity and they don't like it...meaning data sharing is not a priority...and its not accurate. 

Yes, the bad actors are tarnishing the reputation but there will always be guests (like me) who won't stay in a hotel unless there's no other option.

Loan People in Texas (Candy Buzan) was a big help in getting my financing done quickly.
