- Do you have reserves or access to capital to make repairs/updates to the property?

If you've done a complete renovation—say, updating a 60-year-old building to 2025 standards—their quote could be outstanding.

I thought I would give everyone an update.

A couple of years ago, I worked with an investor who never updated the contact information for the loan and the Bank call the seller (ex-wife), that day she was mad at her ex-husband and told the bank her ex allowed someone to steal their property from them and they got no money, she was kicked out of her house and there were strange people living there.This could all have been avoided if the investor did this process correct.Get educated, also I do not know your attorney but not many attorneys have the knowledge to do this process correctly. 

The bad ones will want 50% upfront, you'll have to plead for update pics, they'll find reasons to increase their initial bids (multiple times) and will want final payment before meeting you for final walk-thru.Many investor-friendly agents have NEVER owned a rental, so you can't really rely on their advice.

Policies should be updated as you run into new situations (like this).

Hey Matt, any updates on your RAL?  

In the side I house hacked I updated the bathroom, I installed turf in the back yard, added a large shed, and furnished the Unit.

Look for properties with updated roofs, electrical, and plumbing.

I find that internet providers, like Comcast, tend to update their technology and offerings to better speeds as customers have higher usage demands.
