Can you come in without agent representation as a buyer and have the sellers agent give the would be buyers fee back into escrow to be applied to closing costs?

Ok, I did some quick research on this as I am now interested in trying this in one of my properties that we are going to have to tear up the floors in one of the bedrooms due to a rotted subfloor.According to askthebuilder.com you should definitely prime any bare wood but more importantly after the paint sets for a couple of days you should apply 3 coats of water-based urethane.

We would have no problem with this layer of a review service if it was meaningful and broadly applied across the industry, but it is neither.

Insurance in Texas is higher than in some states like Nevada where there are few natural disasters. 

We love the school district and the distance from my natural hair studio that I opened in central phoenix about a year ago.

Some of these will be no shows.If I have a tenant that is taking care of place I will likely show house while they are there.If they are slobs or place needs stuff like paint ot or repairs I will not advertise till I can take care of these so house will show well.I routinely use resident research.com for background checks but you Zillow offers online applications for $29 to the tenant.I turned this option on last vacancy and it worked really well.I told anyone that wanted to apply to go to Zillow and do so.

The exact nature of your legal situation will depend on many facts not known to me (us) at this time.

My plan is this will be my 'start retirement' property :-) I am going to do my standard 25 year amortization loan in case I run into any unexpected things along the way, but use the projected cash flow on this property to apply all of that to paying down the mortgage early.

I could put the minimum down OR put more $ down (50%) to get my rental income higher and apply for a Heloc loan to re-invest later?

So, when this lady applied, I relaxed my screening and on top of that, the government(Section 8) paid 100% of her rent.
