You can get better rates, costs, service, and all-around experience sticking to brokers, correspondents, etc. especially if they specialize with investors.

My predicament is that what the landlord told me (in writing) doesn't correspond with what the applicants told me.

I personally believe a female landlord may choose any attire they wish in presenting themselves as a landlord without judgement where as a male will be judged based more on their attire by tenants.If I showed up at my properties in a suit I would be asked whose funeral I was attending where as my wife in corresponding business attire would not be given a second thought regarding her cloths.Church cloths ?....

@Elizabeth DavisI'm not sure what income goals you have, but You might be a good candidate to work as an unlicensed assistant for a real estate agent whose business is taking off but doesn't have enough time in the day to coordinate all of the scheduling/correspondence.

2) if so, should the business name be on leases and correspondence with tenants?

the condensers we get from acwholesalers are pre-charged & the last 2ton unit was $668 but I see they are running around $717 now.But you also need the correctly sized/corresponding 'Evap Coil' $198 plus the line set.

It may also require a corresponding court order confirming the sale.Every state has its own laws pertaining to real estate as well as probating decedent's estates. 

@Cynthia HartleyThe answer to your first question is yes, income from housemates should indeed be included on your tax returns as well as the corresponding expenses of renting rooms in your house.

Our remodeling company has seasonal ups and downs that correspond to RE seasonal changes.

A turnkey buyer may want to pay up front the inflated prices of a lovely turnkey property, so that less is needed for some time, but okay that cap ex may be low but that price was more than correspondingly higher.A condo lawyer friend told me once the main idiocy of condo associations is that they don’t plan for capital expenses.
