Toxic paint et al.Would you want your family living in house remodeled with cheap Chinese s**t?

I have been advised to do a title report on any properties I want to bid on, but am I able to do a title commitment? 

You need to be very committed to this if you move forward.

I have done some research, but I’ve found that many mentors and coaches are asking for significant fees, which feels like a large financial commitment, especially as a newcomer to real estate investing.

Find one with flexible pricing options, no long term monthly commitments and affiliate referral program.

First: Can you commit to living there for at least two years?

For your 1st time, pay a Property/Land/Transaction Attorney to review the title commitment with you to make sure that there are only the outstanding liens on the property, and that the owner has title.- Collect Tax Certificate to verify Property Taxes are Paid- Get a current statement from the seller to verify the existing balance, if they are delinquent, you can get the bank on the phone to verify the amount to make the loan current.- Review the loan documents, there is most likely a due on sale clause, which is why you won't find a title company to process these for you.

I'm just beginning but am considering a bigger commitment in the next five years or so by accessing some or even all retirement funds to buy a building (I'm sure people have thoughts on whether or not that is a good idea!).

As the market evolves we've intensified our commitment to helping investors focus only on listings that are eligible for vacation rental usages and either; have exceptional existing production or high potential for rental performance.

We want to be committed to you and you to us.
