Greetings, I am Karyn Kline, a real estate agent and investor from Fort Collins Colorado.

I do know rates are higher in Colorado right now though.Also have you factored, vacancies, property management, depreciation, etc into your numbers?

Make sure you're using your title co. as well.

@Jerry KisasonakIn those types of situations it is often a case of fear (for herself or for children) - sometimes naïvety "He said he won't hit me anymore" - rather than co-dependency that keeps the woman coming back.

I've found many books are motivational, but I want to know the nuts and bolts of managing, negotiating with tenants, finding tenants, net leases, how to co-broke with commercial brokers (I'm licensed in Maine, but there are few courses offered on commercial).

Hey Charles,Here are the answers to your questions above: 1)The construction banks and clients provide their funds at the table to the title company when they close – so no we do not access title co insured transaction funds.

I use Equity Trust Co and for my needs, they are OK.

Apparently the agent isn't using a title co. yet in the short sale process?

Have the PR/executor sign a purchase contract, and bring that to a title co. to open escrow.

However, there are also a lot of properties where the owner is listed as a bank's trust department (ie, Deutsche Bank Natl Trust Co).
