A lot of times to get an acceptable rent/price ratio these days in this market, you'll be looking at a value add component, welcome to real estate! 

My husband and I have recently purchased our first home and investment property using an FHA backed loan with a 203k rehabilitation loan component.  

I just graduated Cal Berkeley with a degree in Political Econ. focusing on international business trade and labor.

How much more can I expect to spend on the other components of finding leads through a website?

I do this for any vendor I use each year, as I carry workmens comp on my properties for myself and workers I know aren't covered themselves. but if I can prove my vendors have insurance when I'm audited, so my insurance agency compute rates in my favor, because vendors had their own coverageAs far as lien waivers, it's good practice to have anyone that worked on the house sign they have been paid and a lien waiver is used for that. 

@Andrew R. the NRW 91-01: Withholding on Sale of Real Property by Nonresidents is a good link - I went to bookmark it and found I had already done so in 2012 :)My understanding is that it's "withholding" meaning the seller may get some or all of it back once s/he/they file a tax return in Rhode Island for that year.Also a close reading mentions a possible exemption for sellers 55+"In the event that the sale of the property by a nonresident will not be subject to tax under Sections 121 (One-Time Exclusion - Over 55 Principal Residents)... the nonresident seller must make the gain election and file the RI Form 71.3 Election even though no withholding need be made""If the property Martha was selling was her residence and if she otherwise qualified and intends to treat the sale under Section 121 of the Internal Revenue Code (one Time Exclusion Over 55 Principal Residence), she would still have to file the election form 20 days before the closing but would complete the election form and use the special types of transactions area on the back.

Damages to the building itself would be paid from the building’s accumulated funds (sinking fund) pool so that part wouldn’t affect the owner in most cases.Mortgage Interest - Typically you wouldn’t incur mortgage interest in Japan because finance for international purchases is not readily available to foreigners in most circumstances.

Does it affect a private organization's internal rules?

I recently joined a brokerage called eXp Realty, and they are rapidly expanding domestically and internationally.
