There are several 3rd party services built within the software that are required (not expensive but will cost).

Lots of drinking, parties, possible fights, usually sloppy housekeepers.Just my $0.02.

I can see if you close the deal and then get an un related party to float you a second after closing

Talk about how the deck will enable you to host great parties, for example.

This world will self-correct in the next few years, and the truly outrageous sposnors will be outed and will find the party to be over for them. 

An HOA should always be paid by the owner, they own the property and are legally the responsible party.

If so, make sure agreement is in writing, signed by both parties, specifies new end date and ensures any existing security deposit will still be dealt with properly per landlord/tenant laws, and I'd also ask for a partial payment to be issued at signing to make obtaining his new place easier.  

So the asynchronous nature of tenant requests, coupled with trying to get them handed out to the right handyman, plumber, etc, are driving me insane.Is this something that can be outsourced without going to a full 3rd party property management arrangement?

I am a little late to the party, but I am really interested in buying in Branson area.

We're at the point where P&S has been signed by all parties of both transactions, and we've been approved for a mortgage by Salem Five.
