You can bet if they messed this up, everything they touched is crap (think electrical and plumbing too).

Your best bet is to talk nice and get them to agree to remove the items.  

Best bet is to pull your own comps from what's out there on craigslist and rentometer and build your numbers from there.

Bet you dimes to dollars that solves the problem.  

With research I've decided that the FHA loan will be my best bet to reduce the down payment to a reasonable level.

The best bet is to start rolling the 401k over into roth accounts to really let it grow.

Up till now, I always been out bet by someone, or 70% of time CASH buyer.

I have saved up around 30k in liquid currency, 6k in a 401k and around 8k in investments.I work in the Cerritos Area of Southern California and am wondering a safe bet to throw a Owner/Occupied FHA loan at.I would like to use this as a long term hold investment for monthly gain, and would like to keep my ROI very high.I can not fund a conventional 20% down which is why I am going FHA.I would LOVE to stay within 45 minutes of my work area of Cerritos Auto Square..Any tips?

I bet if you asked 100 people on Bigger Pockets the would not be able to define "imputed interest".I am thankful to @Bill Gulley to motivate and to write about "imputed interest" re: seller financing.The definition of IRS imputed interest is interested the IRS creates on a personal loan, and taxes the lender down the road, even if the lender is not actually collecting interest.What if you let your son $30,000 to be paid back over 10 years interest rate, the IRS will imputed interest rate on the loan and tax year as if the imputed interest were actually being collected by you as income.

Fixed could be a safer bet with your loans already playing interest games.
