Hi - hoping some of you can let me know what I am missing or calculating incorrectly.  I hope this is easy enough to read but if it isn't, I can likely link the Google Sheet.

I will be a first time home buyer in a couple of months and wanted to know if I am going to pay with cash to purchase the home, do I have to have my credit checked?

I'am using the BiggerPockets calculator, an app on my phone and I just googled random calculator to cross check my numbers and I'm getting 3 different calculations.

Your lease should cover the fact that they walked through and accepted the house - this includes the yard.also, regardless of the tree location you can take the straight line vertical and trim those branches in most locations - check with local HOA, building or code enforcement 

You definitely want to check local laws.

You would want to check with your CPA/accountant to see how he would like you to set up the second LLC. 

I haven't paid for anything other than books but I'd recommend checking out Robuilt's youtube channel.

Yes, you will pay for commissions (which are 100% negotiable)- I like the idea of approaching the agent for the new buy (if in the same area), who might give you a discount on the listing if you also buy from him or her.There are programs out there that help you BUY before selling, they will give you a 20% downpayment and money for repairs on your existing house- you'd have to use an Agent and them that is affiliated with them and they act as the straw man lender- check out Knock.com, Ribbon, Orchard, Homelight, etc- and there are others- I'm not sure which are available to you in California.In most states, homes are sold "As-IS" anyway), and all you have to do if you cannot make repairs is to properly DISCLOSE what you know isn't working, so that buyers can take that into consideration in ADVANCE of contract, in both their offer but also to save them surprises later on which could cause them to back out- if they know in advance and all is disclosed, there's less chance of that happening.

I recommend checking out Omni's Cashflow Breakfast Club (there are a handful across NOVA).

I will check out local resources.
