You shall never pour cooking grease or other damaging/obstructing objects down toilets, sinks or drains.

You don't need an agent who is in the REI market, but I do find that if you can lean in that direction that the connections and recommendations for the type of REI you want to do will come much more easily.Make sure you only work with licensed and insured contractors - they're responsible for the financial and physical success of your project and it is key that you're working with a reliable professional.With all that in mind - check out central Indianapolis.

The goal here is a) to demonstrate a history of income, and b) to demonstrate that you have assets (financial or physical), which may back your investment.

So I've discovered that my condo in Long Beach, CA has termite damage in the kitchen cabinets.

Is the outside structure damage from water , dry rot, or whatever.

It wasn't until I had an old friend Justine Fey and  his wife Amber Rose reach out to me to do some repairs to a house they owned which had damage done to it from a kitchen fire started by a tenant.It was nice catching up with Justin because him and I both had a real  passion and love of Real Estate from a young age after High School...and so in catching up after so many years,  I decided gave them a really heavy discount on the repairs I had done.

I could make anything look good in photos, yet there could be mold/rot/termites/broken pipes/aluminum wire/broken this/damaged that... all things that a photo won’t show, but very well may need to be addressed and may cost $$$.Seller may say roof doesn’t leak, and photos look ok.

Oh, I have bought many properties in this situation.Here are my pointers/lessons learned:1) Make sure you understand the deposits and they are included in closing2) Make sure you understand your state laws on giving the tenant notices to move out3) Try your best to communicate with the tenant some will freak out when a new landlord is added.4) Get a copy ownership to the new tenant and make sure to get keys5) Inform new tenant by your state laws you need to do repairs and get pictures before damage is done that they claim was pre-existing....bs.6) Be nice but be strict when it comes to paying on time, they will test you.7) Hope for the best, and prepare for the worse. 

Who is responsible for the fence damage caused by a severe storm where:Usually, when an "inside" side of the fence (with the horizontal 2x4 bars across the fence) is facing the owner in the owner's yard, the owner is responsible for the repairs.The situation:The "inside" of the fence (with the horizontal 2x4 bars across the fence) is facing the easement (which acts as a storm drain for flood control) in a HOA neighborhood.

Can we serve them a notice to vacate to avoid risk of possible damage in the future?
