203K is a good option in the right circumstances but be warned the red tape on these can be the cause of a lost deal in no time flat.

This is a common dilemma for the self managing part time handyman landlord.Here are few other "easy" ones IMO and in no particular order:ToiletsDrywall repair (small)Jammed garbage disposalsPilot lights and thermocouples.Rubik's cubesSwitches and outlets.Light fixtures and ceiling fans.

He even warned us to be ready if the seller decided to increase the price because it was just a few days in the market.

It also has a 24-hour battery backup with a warning when it loses power.

I would warn that this information could be outdated at times - at least for my state's websites.
