I'm thinking each state / counties have different proceduresFor example ( Wisconsin ) : I just showed a property to potential client earlier todayClient/buyer here needs to contact a real estate agent for showings / accessClient/buyer agent fills out our city of Milwaukee standard contract offer :~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -- including offer prices -- estimated rehab cost -- etcOur county office give owners occupied tenants initial 30 days before opening up property to investors / non owner occupied buyersOwner occupied here is required 5 years of residences buyer / client must fixed any code violation within a certain time frameHere 30 - 45 days to close propertyHere client/buyer must locate their own fundingHere certain areas city of Milwaukee will match rehab (NSP) up to $30kHere equals Milwaukee County
