I doubt anything would be worth pursuing legally, and even if we felt that strongly, I doubt we have any legal ground to stand on.I would appreciate thoughts of any kind, particularly if you have experience with “reporting” a realtor/broker or someone else having reported you to your state’s DORA, or what ever the equivalent might be in your state.

And yes, some states do allow dual agency, which is a loose-loose for everyone except the agent, or they could be a transaction broker or whatever equivalent is in the specific state.

(Read: ~3-4 SFH rentals or some cashflow equivalent, enough that my rentals bring in a livable monthly salary.)

It’s not necessary to pay someone tens of thousands of dollars for a gig that is the equivalent of answering a few texts a day.

That $125k saved (not counting interest) was equivalent to the value of about 110 months rent for a similar home. 

If you get a good deal on the property and the school is good, do not let me stop you.That being said, if you had three equivalent assets and one was near a decent high-school, one was near a decent middle-school, and one was near a decent elementary school, I would go with the last of the three.From a safety perspective...

So below is the language that was in the auction listing: Buyer may receive a Special Warranty Deed or equivalent if Buyer is able to purchase title insurance without delaying the closing (title fees typically cost between $500 and $1500 and are based on the purchase price of the property).

I first became aware of surety bonds when signing a rental lease at a large apartment community in one of our country's overpriced coastal cities and was presented with a choice - pay the customary one month rent equivalent for a security deposit, or pay less than $200 for a surety bond which would pay the landlord for damages at the end of the tenancy.

At the end of the day, this sort of asset is equivalent to an RV or the actual structure of a mobile home, especially with the ordinance requiring utility hookups. 

If you 1031 a property that had a mortgage, you need to exchange that for a property with an equivalent amount of debt.
