Get a couple of card open, prepaid is fine like you said above, and use them and pay them off every single month.

Is there any pros and cons for buying a pre-paid leasehold? 

I've come across some proration probs where the actual months used were prorated and where the remaining months were used to prorate and this is what I need clarification for. for ex, annual taxes are 1600 for the calendar yr. seller prepaid through the end of the yr. if closing is on sept. 17 what amount will be prorated?

Does anybody have experience with using a prepaid legal service for investing/rental/contracts for long distance investing? 

The other $3k is just taxes/fees and prepaids.

@Allie Foland“Seller to pay XYZ dollars towards closing costs, prepaid, and escrows”.

You will want to understand any loan fees, estimate cost to close, prepayment terms, what needs prepaid, what the draw schedule and fees are, reserve requirements, etc.  

1) Bad landlords that do not screen.2) Nice landlords that will look past his credit being destroyed due to medical bills. 3) Smart landlords that will accept him with a large security deposit / pre-paid rent / cosigner. 

As long as you make the termination date on the agreement after the prepaid rent is run out.

Outside of pre-paids, this is probably costing $3k.
