My current tenant got an inspector to take multiple samples of asbestos.The biggest asbestos items are in the attic.Popcorn ceiling everywhere, tested at 1% asbestos.In your experience, does having asbestos in the house make it more difficult to rent out?

Is it worth testing to discover if the paint is in fact lead based beyond the assumption or will I become liable now with the knowledge of the lead paint present.2.

My husband and I are really struggling to devise a plan to purchase investment properties through a corporation.We have the corporate formed and funded through an intercompany loan ( I own a small business that does well).We had a semi successful large scale renovation through this company (we purchased a bad property, renovations went sideways and then the market stalled with the stress tests on mortgages - Yikes).

I tested a 19 year old kid yesterday who drove 12 hours for this job. 

The listings are so very slim in my area.

Make sure to stress test all of your deals in this current market to be safe!

Claire, kudos for using BP to test out the concept. 

I would recommend to stress test whatever property's you come across veeery well.

That said, what out for the regulations.There is a 4 step test for figuring out if you are offering a security (requiring SEC and/or state registration).

Some will be major and really test your commitment.
