Dear BP Community,I am a long term investor and I am working with contractors/managers who offer to assist me in purchasing a property by inspecting it prior to the purchase.

No prior evictions or felonies, salary must be 3x monthly rent, must have verifiable income, employers number, previous landlords number, credit score minimum, etc. 

No one returned the rental app which I requested prior to showing the unit.I also don't see a lot of 2 rooms being rented as a pair, so in this circumstance I am unusual.

Even prior to that I’ve always had an interest in real estate because I’ve always seen it as the best means of financial freedom and getting out of the rat race.

Do your own calculation utilizing an actual paper form and by following the form instructions very carefully and see what you get.BTW - I use TurboTax and for some very odd reason Sch B was showing pennies on my entries, but nowhere else in my return did that happen all were rounded as expected.

Account Closed that seems laborious and time intensive given I will want the fee prior to processing the application.

Then they may give you a list of items that have to be repaired prior to closing.

Partners Engineering and Science is one group that my prior company used to use for their transaction due diligence. 

That gives us time to clean and get repairs done prior to the next move in.  

Account Closed, the qualified intermediary must be in place prior to closing of the sale of the relinquished (old) property so the exchange can be documented on the settlement statements and the client not have actual or constructive receipt of the proceeds..
