What you are asking is how can I get around not doing correct due diligence on the property and the answer is you can't and should not because that isn't fair to the rest of the development who bought there understanding the rules.

I said we are not responsible for the fixture until move out.They left the fixture outside under all weather conditions.Are we being fair?

Hello,First time poster and fairly new to real estate investing.

@Tom S.Thank you for the great advice, I will definitely make sure the inspectors check against the code book, its a duplex listed at 69k currently but foreclosure company seems eager to be rid of it, so the price should be fairly flexible.

You can collect applications and then choose the "most qualified" applicant, but that's opening the door to Fair Housing complaints.

However, the outline below is fairly standard across most business plans.Executive Summary (Objective, mission, keys to success, etc.)Company Summary (Goals, operations, ownership & personnel experience, etc.)Market Analysis & Strategy (Approach for finding deals, investment strategy, etc.)Financial Plan (Startup costs, leverage, reserves, etc.)Exit Strategy (Timeline or milestones for exiting or refinancing investments)

Cold calling is a long play too, it takes nurturing and having systems to convert. 

From what I remember they seemed to be a fairly small outfit out of PA. 

Someone has been playing tricks on us.

With major investors making moves in downtown Dallas and surrounding areas, it raises questions about how these developments will influence the overall market.I'm curious, how do you see the balance between urban and suburban growth playing out in the next few years?
