For me,  I never needed to hire an attorney as I preferred to handle all my cases myself, and  never once  lost a case in my 13 years as a landlord and owning 40 rental properties of my own.  

Personally I prefer the nicer areas and newer homes though because I usually do not have the time to deal with many repair issues/high tenant turnover like you would get with older homes renting to lower income demographics.  

Their money comes in various tiers of interest (some IO bridge financing, some equity with preferred return, some class b equity, etc).

I prefer certain zip codes, primarily single family homes 2-3 bedrooms. 

-Christopher  I usually prefer not to work with a buyers agent.

That new couple without kids might prefer a luxurious and romantic space, as well as a larger kitchen or dining room where they can entertain.

So putting myself in a buyers shoes I would probably always prefer nice, big pictures over a video.

An ongoing income stream from the sale, is not the buyers responsibility.I think there are several reasons that a purchaser who does need a loan, would prefer to deal with 'their' bank vs. the seller, sellers lawyer and sellers loan servicing company.

It may be baseless, but I much prefer taking away a layer of stuffy professionalism.....especially when I am sharing my intimate financial details with an individual. 

I'm trying to generate a list for Orange County, When choosing No preference on "owner occupied status" i get 8,471 count, when choosing absentee owned it shrinks to 10.
