I am in PA and as most of you might know, the 2% transfer taxes in PA are split 1% each between buyer and seller (in a normal real estate transaction). 

This brings up some the info I'd normally go to the tax assessment database for to see the primary owner and when hitting "Show Detail" I see if there is another owner, when it last sold (if sold after the 90s), tax rate, tax class, and owner's mailing address.

IT definitely makes you WAKE UP and see things in a different perspective. 

There is legal team review, and some other sweet items.I am normally the negative guy and having worked in distressed real estate for 10 years, I have a pretty good understanding of deal structure.

Applicant said that they do not have any pets, but they do have a co-worker that comes through town twice a week that will be staying overnight, and they have a dog.My standard terms for a normal pet situation are $25/month per pet, $300 non-refundable pet fee.

Although the formal meetup doesn't start until 7pm, some of us normally show up at 4pm to beat the traffic.

This is normal for a regular sale but my concern is that the seller is remaining in title.

If the stairs are solid, the Landlord wouldn't normally be liable for damages.

You can buy a home every few years normally just by using this method.2.  

I just don't know which way to go, is it normal for banks to take this long to make a decision?
