at least here in Florida on the second page it has a check box that establishes that unless the box is check , seller must deliver property free of tenants ,  and occupants and future tenancies..See if you have something similar on your contract and if you left it blank then your are safe and can fight that back.

What if (fill in the blank) To me the point is not how many doors doi own, its more how do I best ensure I have a stable income (that hopefully increases over time) while keeping my nest egg safe  

I bet if you look at the settlement paperwork from the purchase, there's 4 legal descriptions, 4 APNs, etc, and you actually got a blanked mortgage secured by all 4.

Antique furniture, really nice one-of-a-kind artwork and wall hangings.Now if the guest mentions a birthday/anniversary/special occasion etc, we will leave some treats, even beer, wine or champagne depending.....There is no set way to do it, just go with your gut......what would you want to see when you walk in the door?

If you are farming foreclosures or people in general, consider using an oversized envelope that looks more like a birthday card or card for an occasion.

I can't think of any savings account that would guarantee 4% compounding growth, and for what it's worth, banks hold more Life Insurance than any other person or institution for similar occasions as the one you're asking about.

Buying a tenant occupied house is rarely successful, most of them stop paying as soon as you close they might have a prior agreement with the seller or just jumped on the occasion, when investing out of state always pick a vacant house and make sure the tenant is properly vetted by your manager. 

This is the rare occasion when the only lesson to takeaway is to offer on houses when they look too good to be true.

Being one who’s incredibly patient and makes very educated decisions, I’m just soaking up as much knowledge via book (just read Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing by Michael Blanks) and free audiobooks via YouTube (Rich Dad/Poor Dad, The Millionaire Real Estate Investor) and many podcasts on here.
