My concerns are as follows:1) Insurance claim will take a bunch of time and they will deny it since they do not know the origin, when it occurred, etc. 2) In their review process, they will determine an 'overkill' level of damage that I will need to repair, and then deny the claim anyways for whatever reason.

Closing doesn't occur until all rehab work is done and inspections passed, so the investor should assume zero risk until the property is ready to go, or 'turnkey'.

Hello everyone,This is kind of a weird question but my fiance  and I will be attending our first REIA meetup this weekend and it occurs to me that every businessman I’ve ever met says you must have business cards at networking events, and we have none.Now my first thought is, we haven’t made our first deal and are still planning to pull the trigger in about 2 months, so it really feels sorta presumptuous to print off business cards which say anything real estate related.On the other hand, having never really been to a meetup not related to my day job where I would totally have business cards, I’m unsure if it’s really bad etiquette not to have them.So my quick poll is, as people who have done this way more than me, what do you guys think?

Another thought occurred to me though: What if we bought a vacation rental type home and rented it out on the weekends and only lived there during the week for the year (actually only 9 months) that she'll be employed out there, then turn it into a full time vacation rental when we're done (I don't think there's as strong of a long term rental market in the area).

I am less knowledgeable about their current appreciation or what occurred in the GR.  

I don't know why it never occurred to me to explore this until a month ago.

Markets change, unexpected events occur, over the course of 5 years the FED can change the dynamics, and on and on.

If HUD finds reasonable cause to believe that discrimination occurred you will be brought into an administrative hearing where HUD attorneys will litigate the case against you, or the Attorney General will file a suit and litigate it against you in Federal Court.

They have to eat it or inhale airborne particles (usually only occurs when sanding the paint and dust becomes airborne).Lead paint is not as common as people think and the risk is pretty low.

It occurred to me to get the seller to carry a small 10% second.
