I recently finished up my first rental and got tenants in place who are now paying monthly. I am looking to see what is the most preferred bank to use for managing rental payments. It would be great to get into one wi...

Hard-money lending is a bit scary to me as I've heard it can get in the range of 15% interest rate, but I'll try to see if there is a fit for it.Do you have any favorite Houston real estate investing meetup groups?

If anyone can recommend their favorite contractor I will appreciate it.

Another more important factor is liquidity.

If so, then I'd invoke it and get my E/M back if it's that big a deal to you.

I'm currently working on a BRRRR and I'd be glad to share what I know about our neighborhoods, my favorite agent and who does good work.

A lot of posters here keep saying sue for specific performance, but that happens about 0.000001% of the time.Think I'd take my inspection fees and get my E/M back and learn that you really can't force a seller to sign.And even if you could, a signature under duress isn't legal often.
