another thing @Dawn Anastasi, is that because I was around so many different people in the military, you can learn to recognize qualities in someone, so what I could even do ( I have not researched the legality of this, I am just brainstorming) is start them out on 1 month and explain that it is to make sure that they are suitable for the chemistry of the apartment, if so and everything goes well, we continue on.

Or maybe even joint-venture with them.The other sellers who don't need their cash-out now and are willing to give you terms, you could arrange owner-financing.Regarding marketing, I believe listsource would be a suitable place for data.

But to not give someone time to find a suitable new place and even possibly pack / store your things?

You need to review the comps he used and make a case for why those comps he used should be eliminated (aka: provide more suitable ones) or that he did incorrect adjustments.How long ago was the 548k appraisal?

In the meantime help her manage her properties.And if you are really in the mood to help try to find a suitable multi unit at a great price, good area but run down and poorly managed for example and do a master lease option and have her exchange into it.

I have several lines out to find a suitable partner in these areas but your experiences and foresight is invaluable which is why we all love BP.Also, this seems so ridiculous to ask.

PA doesn't have many specific landlord laws, but definitely ave a look at http://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/overview-landlord-tenant-laws-pennsylvania.htmlPhilly does have some additional ones including a business activity license (they want you to pay taxes), rental suitability certificate (which certifies you have smoke alarms and in theory they can inspect, but never do).

Not sure of all of the exact requirements but If the house is suitable to live in, (and you plan to live in it yourself) it is reasonable to assume fha would be an option.
