Its unfortunate that It seems as if matters will have to get resolved through probate, I am hopeful for less tIme consumIng aooroach.

The ultimate question would then be, what is the payback period (from maintenance savings) for spending the extra $470/unit to vent outside? 

The sale of our current home of 15 yrs would allow us, after paying off the remaining 15 yrs of the mortgage, to buy a smaller home with cash and have plently of cash left over to save or invest.

If anyone is interested in partnering up to buy two tickets together (and save some $), please let me know

My partner will be more in charge of the labor work, doing what contractors aren’t needed to do while I help to save some money on expenses and rehab; and also just to learn and gain knowledge.

Hi @Patryk Sommer,Save the extra 1.5% down to reach the 5% down minimum on a conventional loan.

I have a list of local banks saved that I can start contacting.

I've heard anywhere from $500-$1500.I'm serious enough about RE that I want to be my own agent to save the percent or two on future properties, but I won't be ready to buy another one for a while.

*I can post me details about the specific property if anyone wants that kind of detail but I'll save that much info until someone ask for it

My buddy @Christian Cramer lists homes for 1% or something crazy like that... if you can find an agent in your area that knows what their doing and will offer you that kind of deal it could be the difference between kissing money and making a good return (Just don’t use a bad agent just to save the commission, if they don’t make sales they’re probably not worth it)
