Thanks Andy, selling a property and 2 lost with equity to pay some credit car deb and generate quick cash.

Normally, this fee is added when it is a flat fee service, or the owner is difficult to work with on pricing.Working with contractors is a difficult task filled with frustrations and missing timelines.

If the garage is 2 car, you can split and provide garage space for each rental.3.

Problem is only "RE pros" get to do it.There are 3 income classifications in the US - Active, Portfolio, and PassiveActive income is income derived from your job, or normal trade or business.Portfolio income is derived from bank instruments - stocks, bonds, etc.Passive income is income earned from investments.Active losses can wipe out both passive and portfolio income, but it doesn't work the other way around.Portfolio (capital) losses are limited to $3,000 annually.Passive losses can only be offset by passive gains.Real estate rental income by its nature is deemed passive per IRC Sec 469One way to get around it is to become a pro - spend more than 750 hours or 1/2 your time in real estate.But most folks aren't real estate pros.

I just have never heard of this kind of experience and am wondering if others have run into any debacle like this. title company checks normally dont get held I know mine never do.. last year when first american got hacked I had closed a deal and had a nice size proceed wire due and it took 6 or 7 days for FATCO to get the wire out to me..

I've sat in my car for conference calls, using wifi from a local business.

And anytime you have that cheap of lots that are buildable you can get a building boom that will far surpass normal absorption liike what we are seeing now or saw what 3 years ago  or so.. builders / GCs taking on 50 jobs at once with no hope of ever being able to deliver simply not enough subs and such to keep up.  

For a $1,500 rental, the prorated rent is normally $50/day.
