However, since its the attorneys that order Title for their client, the attorney has to eat the cost of Title's work if the deal doesn't close.Similarly, I try to manage client transactions to minimize exposure to costs. 

It's pretty common to obtain 100% financing for both the purchase and rehab funds after you've been doing this for a while.Borrowing, of course, is a two-edged sword because your interest payments, especially for a hard money loan, can eat 1/4 to 1/3 of your profit.

If I want to eat healthier, I assign more points to the positive habit I want to focus on, but also reward myself for NOT doing that bad habit.

Egg on my face, and I am now happy to admit that I am a (long ago) law school drop-out.I still have not found a more up to date (free) source of the statute than my original source, and can’t tell whether this version of the Bill I just found is the final version signed into law: https://gov.georgia.gov/document/2024-signed-legislation/hb-404/downloadIf it is, then it appears that a 3 business day notice “… shall be posted in sealed envelope conspicuously on the door of the property and delivered via any additional method or methods agreed upon in the rental agreement.”

@Austin Berlick,There are essentially two ways to outsource the grunt work of “landlording”—unfortunately, both will eat into your margins.The first is to hire a professional property management company—this will cost you between 5% and 15% of rents, plus surcharges for out-of-scope services.

Also know that turns are costly and will eat into your profits like an alligator.

Unless your mechanically handy your maintenance costs will eat you up.  

Actually, in this hypothetical case, you'd be better off eating the $19k lien, tax lien, or whatever it is, 25 years of daily dog walking sucks!

Meaning me and my partner  would have to eat that loss and come out of pocket to augment the rent to pay the full mortgage for at least a decade or so .
