4- how to find or fix the problem with a dead outlet, reverse neutral, missing ground?

I purchase a property 3 years ago that was cash neutral at purchase using my cap expense numbers (most people think are high) that now cash flows $800/month.  

Unfortunately, in my area (San Diego), even with 30% down you are barely cash flow neutral so there is no cash on cash return.

That's a lot of "ifs" but getting some kind of T12 from a neutral party will give you a better indication (in my opinion) than algorithms are going to be able to project. 

By switching from buyers agent to transactional agent, the agent is deciding to give up on their buyers best interest and instead act as a neutral party.

I'll probably just stick to basic tile options and neutral colors.I'd been looking at 1033 Laredo Lane just before buying this one and it had an offer almost immediately (nice to see that people are still actively buying existing homes even when new builds are available), seems like a popular and growing area. 

I think it helps in neutralizing the impact of the notice.

Arturo Borges So the easiest way is to get a T12 provided by a neutral 3rd party property manager.

It might be a bit hard to cash flow while living in it, but being net neutral isn't bad either especially if the quality of living is in such a nice property!

Once you have a contract, you can find a trusty and neutral real estate attorney to draft the seller's financing agreement and carry out the closing process (pay doc stamp fees, taxes, transfer deed etc.).
