J Scott can you go into further detail about the bank incentives?

Ok I've got some more details from the broker-The mortgage is a CMBS loan and the fees to defease are too big.

Also, make sure you run a full/detailed credit check.

In order to receive/access DETAILED/COMPLETE credit report info (as opposed to just getting a recommendation on whether or not to rent to a potential tenant) from ANY tenant screening service, you must have an onsite inspection by a designated third party and pay an inspection fee.

So again, sit down and discuss the details and work them out.

I give them the full list in writing when they see the place (hard to cover every detail in a phone conversation.)

they will give a typicall block ranch stye home that nice architectural detail that the craftsmen style homes have on the inside.

I have a couple of friends who recently graduated from MIT and Harvard and what fascinates me about them (and their classmates) is not their intelligence, but rather their desire to absorb information from people around them.

Your purchase makes no sense-please explain the details, so we can help you For the last 2 years I have been looking for a house for me to live in.

More because it would be too hard to educate the agents as to the subtle details that have to be managed to keep things on the legal side of the line.John Corey
