I suppose I could leave in the instructions to type in my number in the Gate Box, which would then call my cell phone, and then I can open the gate for them remotely.  

Never need to worry about someone getting locked out again if the door access code is the last four of their SSN or the last four of their cell phone number... 

Whichever exit strategy works, we'll make money.3) Now for the not-so-good news...we lost 3 HUD properties this week because of delays.

Each year we pay thousands of dollars in state fees, board dues, continuing education, MLS fees, buy signs, buy business cards, pay for marketing, expenses, cell phones, car, gasoline, TAXES, etc.

The pictures Jon posted were all sent by me via cellphone while we were doing work on the house for several days.  

With this in mind, our current plan of attack is to focus on buy and hold investments, both single family and multifamily properties (whichever is the best deal, really).

The only thing that you could do is claim the earnest money/option money as liquidated damages  Per the letter of which ever contract you use. 

One lady raised her hand and said that since some people have watches with alarms on them (this was 1990 so no cell phones yet!)

Then my Brother's business partner in a cell phone store (who wasn't too bright) left to fix and flip houses.

And with a cell phone, well, seems all the bases are covered, IMO.SO shop around and check with the accountants here on BP, they will be more likely to be up on RE issues than those tax store types.
