I would wager the title company has not included any lender related fees.

But if I was a betting man, I'd wager that they will realize they can ease the housing shortage a bit by cracking down on all those illicit STRs -- eventually! 

I would wager that many of us here have mortgages due on the 1st however since there is no fee until the 15th we pay late as rents come in. 

What this tells me is if I had made the above bet in the year 2000, I would have won the wager virtually every time.  

It's been a while since I've done a TX foreclosure but i'd wager a $100,000 home would be $1,500-$2,500 for title work, TSG, publication, trustee fees, recording, and so forth, depending on location and loan balance?

I would wager that no matter what you do in this situation, they will always be unhappy, and always blame you for getting robbed.

I would also be happy to wager the contract you signed with the tile agent expressly forbid this. 

Spring hill jumped 10% I'd wager in the last 3 months...still decent numbers for buy and hold though i suppose.  

Respectfully, counting on the IRS to "connect the dots" is a losing wager in my experience.

Plus, the US working population is decreasing, which will cause wage rates to increase.
