We ended up offering Kevin $500 towards covering our preferred vendor's insurance policy so Kevin could finally close.

Unit 2 ( where I live ) is a small 1/1 with a massive 6 car covered car port and a nice work shop . 

Tenant sent pictures of broken porch light that the roofer taped back together, the flowers trimed down to the stubs because the roofers flatten out the flower beds.

The important part is forcing enough appreciation with the rehab to cover your lending cost.

maybe post a couple of pictures. now would be the time to do any upgrades before you get any tenants, but if everything is fine, then leave it and do the min you have to to get it rented.

So we could cover rent if the place goes unrented for a while etc., Well if I rehab the place a little bit than the mortgage may be higher. 

The pictures she posted were so-so.

@Stephan TaylorWhen you post an ad the 3rd step is to post pictures you have already taken.

If you are dealing with partners, I would highly suggest creating an LLC entity AND have it include a an operating agreement that covers who does what and how you will eventually dissolve the company/dispose of the property.Disclaimer: I am not an attorney nor do I play one on the internet.

What types of things should I have my friend specifically look for or take pictures of when touring the house that are more likely to present fatal flaws?
