Estoppel Certificate - will become a critical component of deals moving forwardWas planning a buy and hold, then a BRRRR, will likely become a hybrid of sorts IF the deal closes Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

I found out who owns the certificate (a bank in Texas) and they want me to make an offer but as this is my first time, not sure what to offer.

Google 'estoppel certificate' you will likely find a form.

humidity is also a thing, it's common to see dehumidifiers in a lot of these older basements to keep the crumbling and dampness to a minimum.2.) read up on 4D and Section 8, so you're aware of what's involved when properties are participating in those programs.3.) st. paul calls their rental license a COO - certificate of occupancy; maintained by the fire dept. 

They finally came back with the following:“At this point we would just need you to apply for a “Special Inspection” at our office for visual “certification” of the existing structures.”I am curious what this sort of “visual certification” entails.

I've gone through other threads on this forum about the legal ramifications of dealing with pre-foreclosures in MD without the proper certifications, and I was curious about MD regulations for marketing.

Estoppel Certificates:Do you ever submit an estoppel certificate to tenants in properties with so few units? 

As of this writing, the license itself is called a Transient Occupancy Tax Certificate (TOT).

I have also found that it's important to have them sign estoppel certificates before closing, regardless of property type or size; especially if the owner supposedly doesn't have leases.These days I'm happy to walk if an owner is going out of their way to not let me talk to tenants or get estoppel certs/existing leases.

Is there a certification that i should look for?
