Also, Dyland hit the nail on the head with the "time to buy."  

Thanks for the heads up.

@Jeffery NealSounds like you are heading in the right direction.

Just make sure that is the list with the headings you will need like the owner's name, mailing, address, parcel #, type of deed they purchased the property with, etc.  

@Allen Maris I took your post as a heads-up, agent beware type of posting.

WHIFFMs sell.Like for instance,I draw 2 linesMaking 3 columnsColumn 1, selling traditionally with an agentcolumn 2, renting it out with a property managercolumn 3, seller financing in FloridaColumn 1 go through all the costs to sell with an agent (6% commissions, 2% closing costs, holding costs of a vacant house, staging, improving a house for sale.)

While I was readings these replies about 5 more questions popped into my head, thinking about what  @Jordan Williamson said about making sure you get a good deal instead of looking at the lower my expenses aspect and it rang a bell, I was definitely looking at this the wrong way, This would be my first investment property and I don't want to regret it, the more I analyze this without living in it, the worse it looks, but when I see the lower my expense aspect when living in one side it appears great.

@Mark Brogan hit the nail on the head when he told you to jump in the car with the family and drive to areas you know.

I don't know your state regs, but in most instances, you should expect rising taxes.

For instance, mention Maryland and real estate agent, and someone in real estate from Maryland would read it, I would think!
