I'm thankful to understand how the seller is arriving at their numbers.

@Josh MellOrder a titles report and Have an attorney review itIf you understand how to do your own title research then you can save a good bit of money.Challenge with PA is the layers of taxes from school to county etc and trying to determine what the amounts owed are.

Since your not on site my fear is the risk in finding the right people that will be honest with you.  

Some people like/don't mind Arlington (and some pockets are better than others), but I no longer look there. 

If anyone is thinking of joining message me and I can go over everything.They helped me start and get to where I am today.I see a lot of people complaining about how bad it is.

But we still do a Facetime for each property.A lot of "unfinished" turnkeys in bad neighborhoods have been sold over the years, by people who have fled the country. ;-) (Portugalseems to be a popular place to flee to).

They used to be the best, but now so many seem to outsource the process and maybe both the originating CU and the people they actually farm the loan out to try to make some bucks off it.  

These will help you understand how aggressively you can push for rent increases.For tenants you want to keep, I'd push the rents to an amount that both parties are comfortable with, so they stay in-place and you don't have to spend on turnover and renovations.

Do not let multiple people pull your credit unless they know their own guidelines. 

Most people skimp on thinking about this and that's what ends up hurting them when it comes to renting them out.
