You could be required to survey the house and a residential area from the total amount to meet lending guidelines, depending of the loan program.

You should also ask for a legal survey, check County for flood zone, zoning, utility location and known geological/soils issues, protective trees (as we have in CA), etc.

This sounds self promoting but the event is free with no selling speakers ever and no meeting fees or memberships.

After paying for the classes and the yearly memberships, how well do you feel you know the material...was it worth the money? 

You buy your membership into the BBB based upon employees, gross sales or the type of business you are, depending on what part of the country you are in.

I've had a Pre-Paid Legal membership for almost four years and have used it several times and wouldn't be without it.

What do you mean by a survey?

They do have a few membership options, some of which supposedly include bus tours, spoon feeding of deals, and multifamily mentoring.

I worked with an investor over the weekend and I proved that the home was over priced by having each guest that visited the open house fill out a survey.

I didn't budge on the price and the buyer decided to move forward with the purchase anyway.Then my realtor forget to send along a signed affidavit with our copy of the survey to the title company so the buyers agent orders a new survey at my expense rather than asking for the missing paperwork.
