Good evening all - I have an extensive rehab / flip shaping up just outside of Ann Arbor.  

In my experience it is also the case that the "savings" from the 3rd world call center title company is more than offset by rate lock extension fees. 

@Jay Hinrichs Appreciate the extensive post for perspective. 

@Dylan Tettemer Japan is one of the very last places on my tick list (I have traveled extensively around the world and especially Asia).

Preferably someone with extensive knowledge of the city and who already invests in the area.

Further, another caution is that you want to ensure that if you are about to engage in this process in the next few weeks or months, to file and extension on your Federal & State, if applicable, 2016 tax returns and not your full federal tax return as that can cut you off at the "knees" if you make that mistake. 

Because the workload is substantial—with an extensive variety of tasks to juggle—it’s vital to an investor’s success to be disciplined, not only with regard to their profession, but all aspects of their life.

However your state handles it, you should post a pay or quit notice on the very first day you are legally allowed to do so.Your mortgage holder doesn't allow you to pay late.I do feel that it's a different story for someone who has paid on time every single month, then had to get all new tires or was in a car accident or some other unexpected expense and they are asking for an extension well in advance of rent being due, vs someone who is consistently late with no reason or warning.But even in the case of the on-time payer, I'd give them a warning if you decide to waive the fee.

West of Orland Park is another hot area, I just did a commercial strip deal in Homer Glen, hot for commercial growth. because of the 355 extension and 159th exchange.

And got an extension and guidelines to resolve the issues.
