Colette B. Better to get one expensive property or a few cheaper ones?
7 January 2018 | 32 replies
They prefer all cash because financing falling through is a very common reason for a deal to not happen.It’s very frustrating when you are under contract for 30 days and then you have a lender pull the financing from the buyer for whatever reason.Pre-qualification letters are very easy to get - an actual loan isn’t so easy.It’s not uncommon for sellers to go through this process 2 or 3 times on the same property, waiting 90 days to finally close.

Matthew S. Tenant Nightmare - new tenant with gun on bedside - please advise
1 May 2016 | 47 replies
Hello Matthew.If that was me in your situation ,I would let the lease expire. 4 months goes fast, (obviously do not renew the lease)once they all move out do your house inspection, and charge accordingly to the wear and tear.Ultimately count your blessing that you did not get in trouble with the County, use this situation as an experience to get wiser, and more strict on your tenant qualification for the next time.  
Mark Werner Overwhelmed with applicants
