I don't think it will fly and I don't want to spend the time necessary to enforce it or fight with tenants over it.

In these towns, there is a MASSIVE shortage of quality rental properties and people are fighting to get into a great home.

Guests are waiting to get lower rates and aren’t feeling the need to fight for dates 

The hard money lender went on and on about buying properties at auctions, REOs and short sales and then dealing with low appraisal values, fighting banks trying to get their buyers loans funded and all these other problems.The REO King had just as long of a story.

Ridiculous, but I can't say that falls on the heads of BP for legal culpability, I'm not a lawyer.All us good guys (and gals) can do is keep fighting the good fight and calling out those who post horrible or illegal advice.

I did save money because I didn't overpay for the property, but now I'm out time for the search and I'm still sitting on a ton of cash to deploy earning zero in the bank.I'd like to see an incentive system where the buying agent has more incentive to fight for better pricing for their clients.  

I am willing to look outside my area and am determined to make this happen.I currently work in the plastics industry and make a very decent living but have realized during the past few years that i need to continue to move forward for my kids and our family.It took a lot of courage to finally introduce myself but i know that these forums can open multiple opportunities and i will fight through all my personal hang ups to make this happen.

We did fix the issue and did not proceed with fighting the insurance.

I did this in CA circa 1976  got my brokers in 1978 so I could sell away and be truly independent you could also fight to get MLS without being a member of NAR but you had to threaten to sue at least in CA.. someone actually did and there is case law on it.but in reality its just the cost of doing business I don't know many other business's were the fixed over head is so low and the income is unlimited.

The other issue is what happens when the bank does a drop bid.. does the amount to redeem equal the drop bid or can the bank then go back to what's actually owed.. there was fights in the courts going on about that issue. however I think its safe to say if you have a clean deal with only the first loan on the property it has equity.. then those are rights to go after.In our market you secure the rights by simply having the owner of record either before or after sale pre sunset of redemption rights .. give you a Deed to the property transferring title.
