Looking for a CPA and attorney in the Northwest Houston area (Klein, Tomball, Cypress area).Also: Is there a quick way to get an attorney to look over a lease without having to go in and make an appointment?

All input in this realm would be greatly appreciated.

So ReSimpli wins out in this category.I know I mentioned good support but also they have really good onboarding as well.

My two cents but the ship has sailed for short term rentals in this market.

In this market, with interest rates and prices at where they are, they're usually not viable (i.e. don't cash flow).

Spring may be better but I was unable to sell a cheap house in October for 5% off of “market value” and only sold a $600k home in January by listing it for $580k and I still only got one offer. ($150k down, 5 year seller financing.) my point being you may get $20-$40k more in a year if you don’t need to sell. 

This is where the substitution clause comes in, as I understand it.

Especially anywhere in California, and particularly Los Angeles county.Talk to longtime neighbors who might know story and whereabouts of owner, but don’t accept as fact.I’d start with researching who the record owner is.

Is this a person who is, from here, going to turn their life around from the desperate situation that they find themselves in right now, such that they are willing to take a Subject-To deal? 

I really don’t want to lose this buyer—what’s the best way to make this work?
