There is always an other box for funding and then you put Hard Money.

There's only a few (great) people on there that have been mods longer than me, so here's my take on it from years of digesting it, in my usual assorted, scattered order:1.

You don't realize the full gravity when you are 20..But it would be less awkward for young people if it were a legal requirement to sign a prenup, just check the boxes you want, maybe even go through some education before. 

They require almost zero labor and don’t care if you breaker box is full or at it’s amperage limit.

You will want to nail down what your investment thesis is, buy box, and why you are better at that investment niche than others

Did you do a loan mod on this house after you bought it in July 2015 and that's what created the HUD partial claim? 

Depending on the complexity of the deal, you can have a few revisions, negotiations to the contract.To me, the focus of the calls is to gauge whether or not the seller is motivated to sell, and if it fits into my buy box, and the price fits my return criteria.

Also want to make sure they have a solid buy box.

When I had a duplex I just put up a second box with a "B" on it by the entry to the second unit.

There was an offset, but it was just past the service box for the home (city responsibility) as we saw it.
