The benefit of old homes imo is that I go in and redo all of the systems and have basically a brand new house that I know was done right bc I oversaw everything.Most new homes are built with cheaper materials than the homes built in 1900.

Hi Melissa - Yes, I saw these and I’m leaning towards https://learntitlesearching.comthe content creator is on YouTube there’s  ‘about’ page contact info, phone, email etc.The other class might be fine~ but site is missing ‘about’ info, no contact no name, no phone no number no email- not clear who they are.ALTA is specialized/ costly (I’m requesting  some  cost covered by a job training program) so far I took a few quick low cost basic classes here: Understanding title reports , Basics of Title reports and escrow from online edhttps://www.onlineed.com/catalog?

The basic demo was complete and the property was ready for reassembly when we bought it, leaving fewer surprises.

Assuming your property is in Utah (like your profile indicates), here's the state law from a basic internet search:In Utah, a tenant who abandons a rental property without notice is liable for the lesser of the following: The rent remaining on the leaseThe rent plus the difference between the fair rental value and the agreed-upon rentThe cost to restore the property to its original conditionThe landlord can also remove the tenant's belongings and sell them if the tenant doesn't claim them within a reasonable time.

Assuming that they aren't simply lucky in market timing, excessive in leverage, or excessively risky, why do you think that some companies and leaders ARE able to duplicate the ROI driving expertise and/or improve personal-business productivity in a way that allows scalability?

Someone might be willing to purchase with negative equity if they are able to take over your <4% rate with basically nothing down. 

I don't immediately see any reason that their basic home value and rent indexes should be considered fundamentally flawed based on that connection.

I essentially present to them my numbers of what I can redo the property for, and they loan me 80% of the ARV basically no questions asked except for an appraisal.

While every project is unique, the basics he highlighted are essential parts of any construction contract.

As to the quandary posed by the OP: The root of the issue is that it basically sucks to be an RE investor these days.
