@Samuel J Gonzales IVI told my wife my goal is to retired from my current position at work at 55 that is when I’m eligible for the “retirement” benefits.

Therefore the original seller has no ties to the property nor holds title and a lien can’t be placed on the property.Now if you’re saying that in the middle of the sell, the seller gets in to financial trouble and a lien then clouds the title before the sale can happen, then this would take a senior position. 

I feel like people are always so focused on the close but don’t  think about what happens in the middle.  

My tenant packed up in the middle of the night (literally according to the neighbors) and moved out of state to live with a lady he met online.

And no, not all areas do tenants just leave in the middle of their leases all the time.

Hey BP Community,I’m a high net worth (lower middle six-figure) individual in his early 20s just exploring the world of REI for the first time.

We are in the middle of deciding if it is worth paying $2000+ for contractors to finish the job quickly and have it ready for potential fall and winter rental, or should we do the work ourselves much slower, save the money, and have it ready for the spring. 

It is a lower middle class area.

On a side note.They make smoke detectors that have a push button in the middle you can push if there is a false alert such as from cooking.
