I'm fairly confident from reading online we don't qualify for an exemption, but I'm trying to assess actual closing costs to trying and reduce them All details:Bought the house 2.5 years ago for $980K (left on mortgage $753K), we have a clause for an assumable mortgage for me to take over (I can keep same rate).

I am just about to close on my first rental here in January.

So average 1-3 closings per month from BP.

If you can't close deals face to face, you probably won't be able to close deals over the phone.

By placing more emphasis on the condition of residents’ dwellings, the new inspection model aligns more closely with stakeholder expectations regarding housing quality.

I have never been to any of the properties I own in Atlanta and closed on all of them from my dining room table in Long Island.

With a rate for a first mortgage today in the 6-7% range something like this probably is going to be close to or in the double digits. 

You need to know what a cookie-cutter deal looks like for the source so you can not waste your time bringing in the stuff you know they won't do.  5) Then you close on the property and put the execution plan in place that was a team effort on behalf of you, the lender, the GC, and the agent. 

- Assign vs. double close.

I’ve had clients pay $100k for a sewer line though (commercial properties, complicated lines running under parking lots, sidewalks, landscaping and the bid includes replacing the landscaping too, etc. or requiring a permit from the city to close off the road for the day with traffic control, etc.).
