You can form a relationship with a title company and get property profile reports and even full blown reports, including previous permits for free so long as you give them your business.I tried doing that and the title co. wouldn't do it for me.I end up bought a block of property reports from Sitex-Data.

I'm coming across a mental block about how to get the realtors their commission.

Gives you a great opportunity to walk out that line in your signature: this isn't a road block, just another opportunity.

The truth is, if houses are selling for about 110,000 on your block, you're probably going to want to be happy selling it for 90,000, as long as you make profit that is amenable to you - that is worth your time and effort.

How big of a block would be their minimum?

I recent cycles yes, during the main street mania phase for gold bubbles, "Americans" lined up around the block at coin shops to buy (not to sell) precious metals.

The framing consists of pressure treated 2 x 6 lumber 12" on center that will sit on cement blocks.

Before I got off the block I had two people flag me down to take a look at the house right then.

If you depend upon them for pest control, it won't get done.I treat all my vacancies with Tomcat bait blocks, and I spray all the interiors of all the cabinets with Spectracide.

I already own a house two blocks away and have a mortgage.
