I’d like to leave you with a thought:RE is the only game in which having lots of money does not guarantee success, and having no money does not prescribe failure.

Ideas for paying for College Expenses with Coverdell, 529s, etc
17 December 2017 | 6 replies
He has provided in-depth college plans resulting in increased financial aid, scholarships, identification of the right schools at the right price, and better loans.Here are my take aways• Coverdell has low contribution limits (2k per year) but the good thing is that it can be used for a wider range of education expenses• 529 is State sponsored and some states have special breaks based on where you live• Do the Coverdell first and then the 529 in most cases• Tuition, fees, computer, room and board, prescribed supplies, and groceries.

ONT- Buying a property with month to month tenants. New lease?
15 January 2018 | 21 replies
@Robert BurciulTime for some coco and spending a little quality time with Ontario's Residential Tenancies Act.Then once you have understood what is written, you will need to learn how the Landlord Tenant Board interprets the Act and how to navigate that office.In the case of the last month deposits held in escrow by the property manager, if you are terminating their services, they should transfer the deposits to you (or your new property manager).I am not current on the scope of the recent rent-control changes, but if they are {near} universal, you will not be able to raise the rent in excess of the prescribed limit - particularly for a long-term tenant.

Esp if they ever get injured or you need to fire them or they become a liability.Just the accounting for a W2 employee is an added expense & a pain.You also negate the ability to do a solo401(k) & to do a 401(k), SEP, IRA etc you have to match them to some degree after a the prescribed probationary period.We now have several on call as some are better &/or more reliable than others depending on the job(s) required.Been there done that.........no thanks!!!

New Maryland Real Estate Laws

The law does not dictate who will pay for the test, buyer or seller.....however the new disclosure forms seem to allow the seller to choose who will pay for it.So I think in reality, all buyers should be prepared to pay for the test, and I think, though I dont know for sure, that lenders will require remediation if the level is above the federally prescribed safety levels.

Appraisals....
9 January 2017 | 16 replies
As other members have commented, appraisals are extremely subjective, but if you get three quality appraisers producing an opinion on the same property, they should all be within 5-10% of each other.In response to Marc, the appraiser asking to see the purchase agreement is likely doing so to determine the conditions surrounding the sale so he or she can make observations and adjustments as prescribed by USPAP (Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice).
