American Express High Yield Savings Account at 1.90% and can access whenever you want.

You're expressing concern about liability and tax sheltering, so I would think having an attorney involved would be a good investment for you.

Express your concern and remind your tenant to read their lease about keeping the place clean and free of pests.

I'm reminded of the "can't get blood out of a turnip" expression.

Happy, even though they have expressed that they are looking to buy a house in 2 years...thanks everyone

I'm hoping one of the local people who has expressed interest works out though. 

He doesn't feel comfortable about giving me a copy but I'm entitled to it as the owner and especially to show to buyers who have expressed interest already but want to see their unit.

Like I said, title co data was 100% accurate when I was farming it as they were accessing public data, not some aggregation as RealtyTrac.We've both expressed our views on the subject so let's let the community  make up their own minds.

Others truly find joy in busting their tail til they are six feet under and having nice things is a tangible expression of their efforts.  

That being said, I took online classes at nyrealed.com (Real Estate Express) and it was very helpful.
