I saw houses for 50-65k ready to move on that could be rented for 850-950 bucks.

Less damage hopefully since they are older and more mature, the higher up you go. 

now i know you cant do that as a landlord.. but as a seller we retain the right to cancel the deal return all monies plus 500.00. this is why landlords get the big bucks on their rentals to put up with this stuff.. 

Almost any other type of fee can be twisted into a conflict of interest, or the "perception" that we are doing something just to make an extra buck. 

LeeCA charges him $800 bucks a year, even if that company is a TX LLC so monetary cost to maintain won't be a factor. 

That's why they get the big bucks.

Those guys seem to have some bucks.

And someone had come in that morning and bought ALL the pastry for the day so it was free I left 10 bucks in the tip jar and the tip jar was crammed..

As soon as the repairs are done and you have a tenant in place, you can do rate & term to get out of the HML (at 75% LTV) so may even walk away with a few bucks but a much lower interest rate. 

They purchased a multiunit a block and a half from the beach here in San Diego instead of LA since they could work from home...I definitely like the mindset of getting most bang for your buck and using the VA loan to purchase in a great area like Santa Monica
