There are a lot of different things to consider here.

We have fair landlord-tenant laws, similar to Texas, but still the specific process is different.

Most occupied property insurance policies will cover "vandalism and malicious mischief" but there are different forms of policies so you'll have to ask.

Just like the asking price, just because the owner suggests one interest rate or term doesn't mean you can't offer something different. 

This Sponsor has at least 8 properties in some kind of distress all in different geographical areas.

I ended up buying a different property two blocks away.  

It's about 20 miles away in an entirely different sub-market.Great price range though. 

Being mindful of when to sell can mean the difference between stalling progress and moving forward with more strategic investments.

I come from Europe too, and I know it can be overwhelming when you look at the real estate market in a new country and with completely different building technics ( sticks instead of bricks), but is not as bad when you have the right team in place. 

Is it different like SC?
