I would reach out to seller and introduce myself as a investor that pays cash for houses and explain to them the benefits of dealing directly with me and how they can save on expensive realtor commissions.

Not much else you can do other than talk to them and explain your situation and ask them nicely not to park there.

For example, if they are a first time couple, inexperienced in military moves, this could be easily explainable (as opposed to someone who's been married for a while).

No matter how many times I explain this, this guy just doesn't know make it work prices.

This may explain why the price of this property you're considering is so high in relation to the rents.

I will take one more stab at this in an attempt to explain.

I think that the contract, closing, hand money, liens, back taxes, etc needs to be better explained, (to me anyway) I just wanted to know how to keep things running smoothly and professionally when you get your first deal.

Closing was probably not the right term, it was explained as a cost for the attorney to produce the documents for signature.As I'm learning, TMV is something that seems to require an access to a realtors view of the MLS for prior sales.

Yes even though some of what you explained was a bit out of my comfort zone.

He also explained how he would approach the deal so it was some really great insight.Smaller towns can be a challenge but there is also much less competition.
