Of course you see it all the time, but it's a simple, no brainer adjustment to the nearest 100 to avoid potential delays.But these are not delays that realtors or consumers hear about, they just experience the end result in closing days delays that were in part do to the time and effort it took along the loan process to get an appraisal changed, a title commitment revised, etc.On the mortgage side, we ALL know of the issues those oddball final sales price amounts not rounded, can mushroom into!

@Ross Sib Construction costs vary wildly depending on many factors like which part of the country you are, the type of materials used, etc.

I currently read a book plus half a dozen podcast episodes a week... which means it's time to spend more time talking to real investors and seeing real deals.As you can see by the icon, I'm a falconer; I train wild hawks.

You certainly need to have an idea how much the first is....tough to do in most cases, it’s a bit of a wild guess, finding if/when the 1st went into default helps.

There’s a Meetup of GR investors once a month at Buffalo Wild Wings on 44th.

So I thought I would take this time to reflect on all that has happened since then.Before BP – I worked a 50+ hour a week corporate job and had 3 properties with plans to aggressively pay them off and in 15-20 years be able to quit my job and live off rent incomeAfter BP – I quit my job within 9 months of drinking the BP Kool-Aid and now have 30+ properties and 90+ units and I started my own real estate brokerage and website business and networking conference for investors.It has been a wild ride!

I get that they don't represent buyers in these transactions and as an investor you should do your own due dilligence... but advertising "great" deals without solid evidence and providing unrealistically high ARV numbers... that should be considered fraud.to me its gross negligence at best and really intentional fraud at worse.. but you know your state.. its the wild west there..  

Drug factory, wild parties........

Are the kids wild and run through house.   

@Craig DiSanto  what @Michael Seeker said is good, those are two larger title companies, the only issue that I have found is cost, some title companies are wildly different in pricing their work.
