In the 40's, it was WWII where the men and women came together to fight for our safety against Japan and the tyranny going on in Europe.

If the original wasn't permitted but now you plan to permit, the inspector may require you to expose all the rough electrical, plumbing and HVAC in that room to verify safety and that there are no code violations.

I would imagine not as they are different lock sets replaced over time.2.In the lease there are no pets listed but many tenants have pets.The tenants said they would pay a fee to keep the pets.So Instead of a security deposit I was thinking of a one time "pet acceptance fee".This way instead of a security deposit having to be escrowed in a separate account the money can be spent right away to increase cash flow.3.I was thinking to prevent toilet clogs the tenants should put those child safety toilet hinges on top of the lid so they toys etc. do not get stuck in the pipe.4.One of my tenants cars is sitting in the parking lot without a tag and a flat tire and the tenant says they don't have money to fix.Do I get that hauled away??

Perhaps selling,and thus burning my bridge and safety net, will give me even more motivation to become successful in real estate.

The daily tasks that pay the bills, throwing that safety net away to go to the unknown.

To get a RE valuation you'd need to find some comps in your area, and if you are in AZ my guess is they would be low, but you need to do the due diligence. the more information you are armed with the better your leverage will be with the sellers.

It's likely they are having you sign an arms length transaction stating you are not renting back the house to the seller.No matter what, do NOT close on that property if the seller plans on occupying it.

You can try calling the local police department to find out about crime and the safety of the block.

Upon formal inspection for Home/Pest found unpermitted electrical/plumbing/foundation/HVAC work that is a section 1 safety/health problem.Bank won't reduce price to meet rehab costs, looking to call county permit office and place permit violation liens on the property to see if bank sees them as more serious issues and reduce the price.

If he had an average ARM, his intrest rate would be falling over the last few years, not increasing.
