As mentioned an old collection account you do not to pay as if it's old it has a really minimal affect on credit.

We will spend considerable time showing you how to beat, minimize and shift the risk of the due on clause.Legal?

I've been browsing the forums for quite some time and decided it was time to make a move.i have made a cash offer on a bank owned sfh needing minimal work.

(He has to pay back what I paid on the construction loan due to his delay according to our contract but I won't exhale until I see the check).I estimate that the built-in equity is closer to $60-80K than $100K but will know better when I get the bank appraisal related to the permanent financing.But I now have a three story townhouse plus basement in a gentrifying area of Philadelphia and a signed tenant who is scheduled to move in in June.

Sorry for the delayed response I just saw your question now.

Blinds were shipped to my door, quality was good and they're now installed with only minimal cursing on my part.

It sounds like that is a key tenet of these BP forums, which is wonderful.Background: Managed a bunch of MFs in CT but that was all cash flow, since appreciation was minimal.

If you do things that cause bank employees to spend time addressing petty delaying tactics, they just caused a financial loss to the lender as those employees do get paid.

If I accept their lower suggestion or delay the increase they often thank me for it.

I knew the split would involve electricians, utility company and possibly permits, but I did not see $360 electricity bills from a 2k sqft duplex with minimal electrical usage from myself and my tenant.I'm going to start the process to split now, but the timing is bad.For 2014, verifying split utilities in multifamilies is now a priority.
