Reputation counts in RE.We have not seen the impact of this Act yet, but issues may arise from:Bankruptcy by the seller or buyer, death and estate issues, interest must be documented to the IRS and agencies could check there, foreclosures being contested, notes being sold and purchased that are non-compliant, as well as other issues....We have no idea what the ramifications will or might be.

I definitely think it's important to take into account the issues that could arise from renting/selling the house.

I have found that a lot of the questions which arise from Marko's system are fairly generic and can be answered on this forum, so as I said it is not imperative although beneficial.

It neutralizes when the repairs were done on any property when running the numbers, and ensures if one of those larger expenses arises sooner than anticipated you're still profitable since you've accounted for it.

That's not to say that these issues don't arise, even with the best turnkey providers, and I find that its times like these when the best turnkey providers leverage these "opportunities" to prove their true quality. 

A rising tide lifts all boats.Have you seen a cross section of their portfolio? 

So, in the event that a murky issue arises that is not directly addressed in my short contract, such as the house burning down the day before closing, or the condition of the home being different than originally agreed on, then I can just back out of the deal!

It's about the very real issues that arise with tenants and properly dealing with them.

However...if you take all of the other factors of the equation out a rise in interest rates should mean a fall in prices because the people with the sticky wages can afford less house.

Sounds like you don’t have a lot of room for mistakes currently and the first few flips, unexpected expenditures will definitely arise.
