You can also tell the agent to write into the contract that you will pay him 2-3% of the sales price, upon a successful closing. 

Scott is nowhere close to "bad" in the context of what a lot of newer members post to the community.I can't think of a better use for the forums than in allowing members like Scott to test ideas like that MTR and get feedback from the community.

My father is pretty close to retiring and has had a very successful last couple of years of his career.

This also showing up in the winter, and the crack closes back up again in the nicer summer weather!    

Hi Trevor, the main question is going to be how close is the new construction to a urban/suburban area? 

I inherited one tenant when I bought a property that the seller moved in right before I closed.

Most of the guests are on their way into town for a permanent move but need a place to stay for several months to facilitate a closing, complete construction, etc.That avatar and sellers who want to cash out and look are the sneaky win for MTR right now in my opinion.

Fully furnished, utilities included, close to hospitals and colleges. 

The owner may not require the tenant association to prove financial ability to perform as a prerequisite to entering into a contract.A tenant association may exercise the right of first refusal in conjunction with a third party or by assigning those rights to any party, whether private or governmental.The timeline for closing is 120 calendar days for rental properties consisting of five or more dwelling units, and 60 calendar days of four or fewer dwelling units.If the tenant association fails to close, the owner may sell to a third-party purchaser.

Our plan is occupy the home as our primary residence.After further digging through the Grantor/Grantee Index it appears that the original lien that is being auctioned is from 2005 and a couple of the banks listed on that original Deed of Trust are now defunct and closed (one is First Franklin).
