However they have a law suit currently pending in court.. court date is actually for some day this next week. 

I have just been trying to observe patterns of prices and how long properties are on the market at their given price points and there seems to be a pretty clear price range where properties sit for a long time, and where they go pending instantly.

Okay, here is my experience with Larry Goins' Filthy Riches course:I found out that in order to find $30,000 homes that are move-in ready and don't have any code violations and are in low crime areas and where the listing agent agrees to take 20+ pictures and guarantee in writing that there are no existing or pending code violations and put my signs in the yard and the seller accepts 25-35% of list price is going to be a full-time job.

Rent-to-Own/Lease-Option is where the tenant/buyer puts down a large non-refundable deposit, rents the property for a specified period of time and at the end of that period of time has the option to purchase the property at a previously agreed-upon price.A contract for deed is a type of seller-finance deal where the contract and the deed are both executed and the deed placed in escrow pending the completion of the contract and the contract is recorded with the land records office to show the buyer's equitable contract interest in the property.

I emailed the Title company on 10/30 and received this response:We are still currently still pending the updated title that reflects the fcl deed being recorded.

In addition, this course will update you on the pending legislation in this area, and how it could affect how you conduct your seller-financing in the future.Whether you use an RMLO, or do it all yourself, it is very important for you to understand the process and know what is required legally.

It's interesting to see which properties are still "pending" or listed that were purchased 5 - 6 months ago.

We expect to put about 10-15k worth of work, and is actually not in a too bad part of the city.The second duplex, nearly identical is under contract and pending an inspection.  

It is perfectly normal to walk through a home during a pending sale, even with years left on the leases.

according to redfin, this house is listed as active/new for 6 days. maybe the listing wasn't updated yet or the contracts are still being worked out.but I've found once an offer is accepted, it gets under pending status pretty quick on the MLS.I do think the house will appraise though.
