@Nabeel Kurji, There could be doc stamps. 

stamp duty in AU will be greater than 10k  don't get anywhere in AU or NZ with 10k that's why a lot of the turn key guys did fly buy and went over there and did big gigs to attract AU investors ..

. - Earnest Money/Hard Money- Closing costs (Docs stamps, taxes, etc)- Financing costs (origination fee, lender legal fees, brokerage fee if any, etc)- Offering Docs (PPM, Sub Ag, LP Ag or LLC OA, etc)- Transaction attorney fees- Pre-PSA inspections (walk & talks with contractors, travel expenses, etc)- Post-PSA inspections (appraisal, PCA, environmental, lease audits, etc.)- Purchase of interest rate cap (if bridge loan) or Locking of interest rate (if long term financing)- Software costs (Webinar platform, investor portal, others)

Most cities do not require an architect stamp on single or small multifamily structures but you would still need a structural engineer stamp.

In most states you only need either a licensed Engineer OR Architect to stamp your plans (not both) so if you are trying to save money you could hire the structural engineer as your licensed design professional and have a less expensive designer work on all the other and have the engineer stamp those sheets if required. 

If you direct mail to note holders using a first class stamp today is the day to go buy Forever Stamps.

If it's been foreclosed and is owned by the bank or another lender, no point wasting your stamps on those.  

Our HOA 'messed up' on when we had to turn in our Board nominations so they placed a white envelope with our names on it, no return address and NO STAMP inside of each residents' mailbox. 

-Utilities In-Permits mostly done and waiver already in place-Setback waiver in place-Plans and engineering covered (using a local Architect that has plan sets that are already engineered for this area and stamped) Cost minimal 5k maybe total for changes and some additional material engineering.

Then once you won an auction, as I stated previously, here is what the county website says about final payment....The balance due (minus the pre-paid deposit), fees for documentary stamps taxes, and court registry fees must be paid by 12:00 p.m. the next business day through the online sales site or in person with cash or cashier's check.
