Places like Tobin Hill, Beacon Hill, Woodlawn Terrace, Alta Vista, Lavaca and similar Neighborhoods are extremely BEAUTIFUL and provide the convenience of a short drive to Downtown.

Concentrate on being 15, then 16, then 17......You have a job, it's going to school, do the very best you can there first.Yes, if you're interested in real estate most of the related professions require college, finance is a very good path to take, so is engineering and law.Begin by studying real estate, not this investor stuff, this stuff can put you on the wrong track quickly, especially internet folklore from spin masters.Stick to text books and specific aspects written by qualified persons, lawyers, engineers, or by professional organizations for appraisers, real estate managers, title companies, ALTA, for an overview.

Seller's ALTA Survey of property at seller's expenseC.

I think you'll have bigger problems trying to double close, ALTA doesn't like that. 

In fact, this is in-line with the information I am seeing.The two to three hundred thousand number I quoted earlier is what will be added to the already in foreclosure inventory over the next four to six months, (or what is considered to be the peak buying season) directly due to Alt-A and Option ARMs.

Title requirements are a bit unorthodox, Seller shall grant title by a General Warranty Deed acceptable to any Title insurance company conducting business in the State of GA as may be selected by the buyer excepting only those maters customary under ALTA (spell it out) requirements.   

Under ALTA and Dodd-Frank the note holder has 15 days to provide a payoff with per deim interest after a scheduled settlement date good for 30 days, private or institutional note, it doesn't matter.There is a long list of claims to make against the note holder (who obviously wants the property back) violation of federal settlement requirements, associated settlement fees for any extension, interference with your contract, predatory lending delaying a payoff for accrual of interest, I'm sure there are more.

I am working on an investor ALT A loan originated by CW so I expect to have a 30 day restriction.

The American Land Title Association (ALTA) governs member title insurers and real estate settlement procedures.

@Jay Hinrichs Good point.Nobody is in the title business anymore unless they are ALTA Best Practices compliant -- either third party certified or lender verified.
