The way I heard it explained is that you take over the existing mortgage and then you can either rent it or transfer the mortgage to someone for free but the videos I’ve watched never say anything about giving the seller anything other than money down to lock it up.

I have only charged for the locks being changed on the property when the previous tenant moved out because she said it took too long to get the repairs done even though I told her what your plumber said about the floor being warped and I believe he was correct because it just seemed to me like foundation issues in certain spots that couldn't be helped and I did also charge for the steps being replaced with 2 boards which probably measured about 6 ft in.lenghth $450.00 to be replaced and painted because that was another tenant complaint and you told me to go ahead and fix it....I told you said that when we looked at the house when the tenants moved out he also didn't see any work that needed to be done to it...the only thing i saw was the rat droppings and the garage door issue that didn't work and the limbs down in the front and back yard which i requested to be removed.
