Tying up a desperate and in arrears homeowner with a purchase contract you can not perform on and in which a sale will happen ONLY if you are successful flipping the property for a higher price can cause extensive damage to the homeowners finances, credit and personal life.  

Perform your own investigation and build your own rent roll/spreadsheets to confirm everything.

Lack of performance I would say. 

Here's some generic beginner advice.1.

Perform the same task in each app to ensure a fair comparison.Load a property with pictures and details.Market that property.See what your marketing looks like from the public's perspective.Submit a fake application to see how easy the process is.Run a credit/screening report on yourself.Enter a maintenance request, assign a vendor, and attach a fake invoice.Enter charges to the tenant's ledger.Enter recurring charges and automatic late fees.Sign documents electronically.Run owner reports.After testing a few apps, one should clearly stand out.

When you get the sheriff’s proposed distribution of funds, there will be a copy of a title search that was performed by a title company selected by the sheriff; that title company is possibly the best place to go to ask whether you should buy a title policy - they did the search and should be willing to insure.

With medium interest rates, you might see a slight impact on cash flow, but BTR properties often still perform well due to their new construction and lower maintenance costs.I’m currently working in the Indianapolis market, specializing in new build duplexes that we construct with strong rental returns in mind.

It would be a great help to a beginner like me and would be highly appreciate.
