just because some idiot at the dishwasher manufacturer wants the water hotter for better dish cleaning doesn't mean you should actually do that.Oh, and if you have winter-summer hook-ups on your hot water - you might want to re-think doing that for rentals.

What is the value of the manufactured home?

What I'm trying to convey James,is that Jay Decima is one of the few teachers that will show the properties he bought ,one at a time in chronological order,purchase price,how he financed them [usually seller financing] how he rehabbed them,how he rented them up,and more importantly how he manages them for positive cash flow.He owns many properties in Redding Calif.He also has a great reputation in the eyes of many conservative reviewers including John "Jack" Reed.

I don't know anything more about that.In addition, I was talking to my wife's broker last week who knows a good bit about the case law in these matters, and she told me that requiring pre-approval from a specific lender -- whether REO or not -- is not prohibited by the mortgage steering rules.I find this a little hard to believe, so I intend to follow-up with the Georgia Real Estate Commission, but haven't done so yet.So, while it's clear to me that agents cant require buyers use a specific lender and that unlicensed sellers can require a specific lender, the rules around pre-approvals from specific lenders is still unclear to me and I've seen/heard conflicting info from reputable sources.That's all I have...hopefully Bill or others can chime in and I'll try to get more clarification from the GREC...

Germain Depository Institutions Act of 1982, (U.S.C.) 1701j-3(d)(8),“With respect to a REAL PROPERTY LOAN secured by a lien on residential real property containing less than five dwelling units, including a lien on the stock allocated to a dwelling unit in a cooperative housing corporation, or on a residential manufactured home, a lender may not exercise its option pursuant to a due-on-sale clause upon a transfer into an inter vivos trust in which the borrower is and remains A beneficiary and which does not relate to a transfer of rights of occupancy in the propertyâ€.

It's not a manufactured or pre-fab home, is it?

As a result they form a bad reputation from not doing what they say they will do.Also some realtors will tell you its illegal even if you live in an area with hundreds of people already doing it.

I prefer to use this technique only as necessary as it will eventually get you a bad reputation.
