When you do stay in house for few hours to make sure no leaks. 

I dont have an issue moving into the KCMO market and I think I would prefer to stay out of south JOCO unless I find an unbelievable deal.I have a few questions;1. 

Rents went down in 2017 and pretty much stayed flat.

You found one that will, and maybe those fees help them "stay in the green" on their balance sheets for those loan sizes. 

Get ready for a fun and fulfilling journey - the obstacle is the way, stay with it!

As long as you stay within the guardrails of this general strategy and consult proper legal and professional advice along the way you will be fine--Again with my post, and I may get flak for saying this, but a lot of people are actually hurting you more than helping by saying that you need to have everything figured out before you get started.

I will stay persistent.

.- They claim that their verbal termination doesn't count and that they can stay until the end of September because I haven't received a written notice to terminate.How should I handle this?

Any more might be too much, but that could be a personal preference.If your house is a 3/2 one-story ranch with no basement, than ALL your comps should be a 3/2 one-story ranches with no basement.Regarding age of home, I really like to stay under 9-10 years at most if possible. 

Also what's your market look like by the time this comes online, will rents stay the same or drop because of excess new inventory?
