I have always closed with their title company and got their insurance, but after looking more closely at some of the cost I think I will consider using my local title and closing company on the next one.I shouldn't say one bad word about this site considering how much money I made off of them and Hubzu over the last 5 years, just sad that the inventory is drying up and getting more competitive.  

You cannot lease a property that has a mortgage on it because the mortgage has what's called an assignment of rents attached to it...You're treading on very gray area with the law.A title company will not insure a property that has an installment land contract because, technically they are illegal (by splitting hairs).

IF furring out does not work appearance wise you can create a small pocket in the dry wall where each bolt is.

Seller's have installed a sump pump; however, I'm not sure that the space is every completely dry

Then use chem sponges also referred to as dry cleaning sponges (Quick tip: You can tear them in the middle like opening a sandwich and get double the use out of them and get a pole that extends with one of those plastic adjustable mop head clamps) to wipe everything that's left.

Another benefit is that they do not dry up the air like central air.

./1ba. w/~750sqft. wash/dry included.I inherited one tenant who is currently at $625/month, I plan to increase that significantly when her lease is up for renewal in July.Tenant I put in is at $775/month and I filled the unit with a good couple less than 2wks after one ad on Craigslist.

The HVAC are 2 tons for each unit and are less than 7 years old.   5 4x8 patches of dry wall need to replaced.   3 water heaters are less than 4 years old, 2 are about 8 years old.

,Could 2 of these foldable drying racks linky-link atenuate the situation?

I've been working with a couple of attorneys that seemed to have dried up and blown away.
