I'm still in preliminary talks with seller and I plan to hash out the finer points with my CPA and attorney.

You you can ask the title company to do a preliminary title search.

Happy to flush through a lot of these preliminary considerations if you'd like to chat!

I have begun some of the preliminary processes of winding down my involvement in things in the Kentucky area and have begun to apply to jobs in the Denver Metro area. 

Preliminary projected numbers: Purchase price: $80,000 Loan amount: $77,200P&I: $325Rent: $750NOI: $4500New furnace: ~ $5000New paint: ~ $2000Cash on cash: 6%The repairs kill my initial return but this will be my primary residence for at least a year; am curious if this skews the investment potential in a way I'm not considering.

1st off...If yo haven't done a sandwich LO before, I would highly recommend starting off with the assignment LO, or sometimes referred to as the Cooperative Assignment.You work with the owner to set the numbers, including the option price, rent and rent credit.When I send preliminary figures to the owner, I know that those are very likely the figures we are going with.

I'm thinking of the private lender that, to save money, just reviews the preliminary title report and skips title insurance.

Is preliminary title work enough to close on?

Check those out for some preliminary information and feel free to reach out to me with any specific questions you might have.
