Radon, lead, pest will all be extra.  

Eddie Most contractors and pest companies aren't going to really be eager to take the time of day until after you have it under contract, until they've got a relationship and have done business with you already. 

While you live there you get good control of the building, bring the maintenance up to tip top etcDon't wait too long to start your investments!

If you are just starting, and have all those assets – that's great – but you should learn to control real estate without your existing cash or credit rating.  

Keep in control of everything you do.  

I like it because I have full control over it.

My true purpose is to finally be in control of my life, I decide to make the rules!

I typically call Gary at valley pest bc he is the cheapest for letters, but one of the homes I helped a client sale used Terminex for mold remediation and were satisfied with them. 

In my experience, having an entity is more useful from a liability perspective if, among other reasons, you're a passive owner, if you have multiple owners (particularly if some of them are passive and you are the controlling owner), if you have more complicated operations or if you have employees.

As far as I know the "substitute trustee" where you have "trustee auctions" is just a substitute representing the bank.....they don't own/control the actual property until after/if they get it back at the auction.
