That was 10 years ago.The contractor who told me the story was supposed to start a job for me, but can't as he had to help his neighbor move, So I asked how this builder expects to make money paying $530k on an old house.

I looked online and can't find any sort of summary form.  

I'm looking to find another lender looking to do the same or very similar.The key for me is not putting more than 10% down.

I have found that education and mindset was first for me in addition to your step 1.  

It seems a good start for networking in this field for me. 

In terms of the process, we filed the form with local Sheriff's department and showed identification and proof that we did in fact hold title to the property.

I would highly appreciate if anyone wants to share, or recommend a move for me that would benefit my knowledge in understanding the market better, process of buying and selling etc... would becoming a real estate agent/ broker be a good step forward?

Download the landlord tenant laws for this state and you'll have all your answers,, like you said each state is different so find out from the correct source.Your notice of non-renewal / vacate would be in those regulations,, but ususally a month to month term only required the same for notice period,, given in written form, mailed and copy posted on door.. prior to the 1st of the month.. for a full 30 (1months) day notice period.

Sitting and listening to a lecture, for me, is mostly useless (I do my education at home). but I'm just one guy.

I'm in the process of finding all the right pieces including forming an LLC.
