You can compute the actual economic vacancy once you see the seller's actual numbers.  

In the Texas Association of Realtors (TAR) promulgated lease, it says "If Landlord does not actually receive a rent payment in the full amount at the designated place of payment by the _______ day of each month at 11:59pm, Tenant will pay Landlord for each late payment...."  

I'm actually a managing broker myself so I do know how dual agency works (it varies from state to state and is different than you described in IL).

Title searches you can do your self.Just be careful with wholesales in Nj it's not really allowed its actually illegal in New Jersey.

Of the 8,000 employees, it doesn't say how many were actually local.

You need to know about real estate.Either way you will be building the capital you need/seek to actually invest, right?
