Given that there are many properties around that have higher ratings and aren't that less good (and don't have such comment in their reviews), I suppose that it's more of an issue in our case.I don't believe that.

I am supposed to be having mediation with the public adjuster and insurance company- upcoming- but I don't have a date yet.

You'll want to read Maryland new requirements for landlords.https://dhcd.maryland.gov/TurningTheKey/Documents/HB693-Land...Thank you for the info, would you happen to have a link to the Maryland Tenants' Bill of Rights that we are supposed to attach to the Lease an addendum?

Quote from @Havital Miltz: Wow a bit of a sticky situation, did you have a conversation with the seller, directly or thru your realtor prior to the closing to find out if the tenant knows they are supposed to move out?

I drove across town to one rei club meeting and paid $20 to hear a presentation by an appraiser that taught me nothing as it was very basic...was supposed to tell me what people are paying up for locally per the advertisement but he couldn’t answer that.

In terms of renting it out - we saw the unit was offline on Zillow and other listing websites depsite the fact it was supposed to be on, and we were the ones who notified them of it.

In non-community property states a husband/wife LLC is supposed to be treated as a partnership  And transferring from a revocable trust (reported on your 1031) to a partnership LLC (that files it's own tax return) is changing the tax payer. 

This is how we are supposed to do that here in Florida, per law.

Everything on my side was set to close, and then today the seller is refusing to close on Monday as they have not moved a few pieces of furniture they were supposed to get movers for.

Hi Scott, you don't need to be a first time homebuyer to use an FHA loan and you don't need to be low credit (as many would suppose), but the product probably appeals most to low-credit first time buyers.
