hello, I am a non-US resident and I wonder if I can take the realtor examination and get the realtor license?

Mitch,All of those are great points to really take a look at (and will begin to examine them when I find my next prospect).

A thorough examination will end up looking at civil court cases as well to identify judgments and other civil matters that might affect title.

It the tenant takes the option at the higher price you make the spread between the prices, less costs of your transactions.The option may then expire and your subject to conditions then expire as well.I suggest you closely examine the option.

Once you've established a relationship with a contractor, he might be willing to do a quick walk-through and give you a ballpark, but doing a real rehab estimate takes time, and even there, there are a lot of things you cant discover about a house in even an hour or two of examining it.Also, just a note...if you call a reputable contractor like me, get realistic advice, take up hours of their time, then hire a couple of no-overhead guys working out of their truck because they're 10% cheaper and made a bunch of promises they'll never keep....well, karma knows you did that ****. :)

Another inspector came out to examine the finished project.

There are so many different opportunities you can get into, it's a bit nerve racking on choosing which path to go.I am looking at the Los Angeles market (or within 2hours).

We have put all of our savings into this so its nerve wracking.

@Julie Doke  lender was asking for an Alta policy... title company that has to insure boundrys with an alta policy... lot and block they take the risk on but if a title examiner had questions they could ask for the property to be surveyed in order to issue the alta policyIN my lending days I ALWAYS required an Alta policy but it was rare that the title insurer requested a survey unless it was a multi million dollar transaction or loan that they were insuring.

Since then, I was a submariner in the US Navy, worked for the State Department, and now I am working for the State of Texas as a bank examiner.
