That's where the position of the buyer is much stronger than a traditional lender.

So even if you pick a state with stronger protections like WY or NV, the cause of action arose in the state where the tenant fell, so likely that the court where the accident happened would have jurisdiction.

@Alyssa Dyer What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger.

I'd says things like; "You are fixated on square footage determining if a house is comparable but you are comparing single story houses to my two story and single stories cost more to build and typically sell for more than two stories of equal square footage" and would get told "if you don't like it go to the review board".What's the bet that next year when we try to use comps from early 2019 when the market has been soft they won't accept them if the market has gotten stronger towards year end.

The reason I skipped the inspection report was not only to have a stronger, but also because I normally fix/rehab the property anyways.

This would put you in a stronger position and open more opportunities.

While so many focus on the low yield from a cap rate perspective, don't forget that lower cap means you have a stronger multiplier for the value the rehab and subsequent NOI increase brings when you refi or cash out.

Being a conventional loan your offer looks stronger from sellers point of view then FHA which has inspection requirements.

Thank you for sharing your lesson...That makes this group stronger!

Texas is supposed to have one of the stronger homeowner's rights regimes in the country, so I'd assume that is true there as well.
