but I was told I could not do that since I no longer live there and also it is less than 30 miles from my current home.My question: Are we not able to take money out of a rental unit (not a finance but LOC)  to purchase another property if it is within a certain distant.  

Almost 2 years ago, I was a finance director at a Dodge dealership in my home town.

Contractors make more money generally working for retail homeowners and not investors, so it is a fine line to how much pressure you can put on them. 

Hi everyonePlease help The Hoa got a final judgment and take the property to the auction the Hoa was the plantiff !!!

Should I just do a final walk through on the morning of closing and run all the water myself?

An O&E report is often used by buyers at auctions to be aware of current title matters.If you do enough business with a title company, you might ask for a preliminary title search, about the same as the O&E but stating title is insurable subject to a final search, I've obtained these free, but I also did tons of deals with them too.Good luck :)   

People contributing their savings and 401Ks to RE investments they don't understand via a finance and/or RE professional is so not new.  

As a final word, Chris is also excellent in getting back to you for support!

My feeling is that if a finance whiz did a mathematical model on these approaches you would come out ahead focusing on one specific property at a time for early paydown but I am not that whiz so I won't undertake to prove it with math.  

I've seen a fine of $25 - 50 a day until you get the tenants out.
