If you selling it as owner occupied, though, you'll have to get the tenants to clean it up for showings.

The contrast between flat and semi-gloss generally makes the trim stand out nicely, and it also cleans easily.Do not paint walls/ceilings all one color.

You may have another party moving in and having to clean or have a maid in to clean in one day and wow...no water.

I own KC's Clean out & Clean up!

The hood is coming into its own, everyone is tidying up their properties, putting new siding on, cleaning the yards, making the street appealing..

I mean they would need a little cleaning up but not a rehab.

I think in most cases if you explain your transaction the title company will see it as a conforming transaction if not go to another title company to do your business with.When the property is sold the trust is terminated as the new buyer comes in with their financing, or if you need to refinance the property the title is revested out of the trust the new financing is put in place then the title is revested back to the designated trustee..Just so you are aware when the trustee takes title, I'm referring to a professional corporate bonded trustee there must be a clean chain of title for the trustee to accept in the first place so choose your trustee carefully.The thing that the lender can do is call the loan due it does not happen often though, if you vest title of your property to an LLC or other entity w/o their approval or authorization that is one of the many reason why a trust is used.

Well I was cleaning out his stuff and came to a drawer that was filled with about 500 bipolar pills that he had not taken.

It doesn't work that way.AS for REOs, there are deals to be had and there are certainly advantages over pre-foreclosures (clean title), but there is work to be done for any deal, be it a REO, foreclosure, flip, wholesale, etc.

Focus on doing a clean deal and getting out without pain even if you do not make a killing.
