With two days after the snow majority of properties have had there sidewalks and stairs clean.

I will only lend from my IRA to keep things clean and avoid the high taxes inherent in the earned interest world.I may do something like this: Using them as a lender only, not equity partner, I would pay a minimum amount of interest as a % borrowed, but additional interest if a certain profit is obtained.  

I like to use White in rentals, let's face it, much easier to clean. the cheaper cost is certainly a factor.

Then run a cash over cash analysis to find your monthly mortgage nut, factor in furnishing, cleaning, maintenance etc...

The Title Co. can tell you if the Title will be clean.

I'm currently rehabbing a 5-plex so I should be able to take pictures later after cleaning up.

Cleaning, prep, forming, pouring, finishing - in our heck of the woods if you can get people who know what they are doing for under 4k - you doing pretty well.

you are calling it a deposit the deposit is for the rental agreement and cleaning, not GOD scratched my carjust check into all your options before throwing your money at a emotional messenjoy

Sometimes my consideration is mostly in the form of work - clean up and painting, but no major reno.  

That way yoir hands are clean.
