I would expect taxes at best 2.5%, realistically 2.75%, and depending on if you are in Harris County and North or South if I-10 would affect your insurance but $1000 annually would be the absolute best you would want to assume for insurance (north of I10 in Harris county). 

Sellers don't have the money to do repairs and the house has no shot of surviving FHA / VA / USDA appraisal.3.

He will move on to other jobs and put hours on the back burner, since he needs money to survive.

@Andrew Harris  Depends where in North Tacoma.

One also needs to make sure the surviving spouse understands how to manage that money. 

My understanding is that the only liens that survive a foreclosure are tax liens.

Even if we do get to a "bust" event if you are not heavily leveraged you can survive.

@Nitin Dhiman  I survived a 100 year flood in Colorado (killed 300 people)  Its called the big Thompson Flood. 

But overtime those who know what they are doing survive while the "AirBnB is easy!"

(I'd like to know about this in advance.)It says the Property Management Agreement can be assigned to another Broker or Property Manager without my consent.It says if the property is sold to the tenant that they get a 5% commission on the sale and this provision shall survive any termination of the Agreement.I have heard horror stories about property managers, so I am nervous about signing something that ties me to one so strongly.
