I agree with JD.Just wait wait the 2 weeks until you close. 2 weeks won't make much a difference in the grand scheme.You could be shopping and know what you want so you can hit the ground running on the day you close.I have heard that there is a credit check right before closing and people have been denied the loan at the last minute due to a large purchase.

This may sound dumb, but if my profits are slightly less, but the expected maintenance and extremely low vacancy risk are handled, I'm okay with not hitting a grand slam on my first deal.

Not very helpful in the grand scheme.

I've seen costs to get the property lead certified vary from a grand or so to upwards of $40k. 

On October 25, 2012, one day after being arrested in France, the Mastros were indicted by a federal grand jury in the U.S. on forty-three counts of bankruptcy fraud and money laundering.

I am new to real estate and own one property in Grande Prairie, AB.

New builds in Casa Grande are my top pick for a long term rental SFH. 

Skyler, I am an investor, a broker and also own a Property management company primarily focusing on the Grand Rapids market but I do have investments in Lansing that we manage. 

I am a Realtor in the Grand Rapids area and would be happy to connect you with a vetted agent in Ludington if you decide using a real estate agent is the way to go!

But, after you've done a bunch of flips, you can usually tell if it's a $15K or a $20K rehab, etc. and be within a few grand...)
