I teach university classes and you should see some of the people that manage to get accepted - it doesn't give you a lot of hope for the future. 

In a sellers market they can often ask for it because it reduces risk for them, however if a seller receives no offers with an appraisal waiver they will likely accept an offer that does have an appraisal contingency in it.You can also do a partial appraisal waiver which means you'll waive up to a certain amount.

Usually, a frank and honest talk with tenants is a best first step to see if an acceptable compromise can be reached .... in this case probably not possible.

I also accepted seller credits towards closing cost to repair the roof.

(btw, no such legal thing as a service "dog")  HUD, however has allowed service animals and forced landlords to accept them.Under pressure from the NAA, HUD recently released guidelines on how to deal with emotional support animals. 

I was told to hire another appraisal but as I sit here looking at my accounts, if I accept the offer of $90,000 can I report this as a loss to the IRS?

Hello everyone, So I just had my 1st offer accepted, now the seller wants to know how much is the loan you are seeking from their lending institution?

Aside of things like properly identifying parties, property, competence of the parties, mistake, fraud, meeting of the minds, etc, there are three essential elements required to form a binding contract:Offer - one party offers to sell, lease, or otherwise transfer ownership of an item to a buyer.Acceptance - the other party accepts the first party's offer.

The other units I have not seen, my strategy is to go and put it in this initial offer letter that I can back out if I don't like the other 3 units (since I can't see them until they accept an offer).

The property information field will not accept the hyphenated address.
