Property taxes are one of our larger expenses here.I am so surprised to know for some north SA areas the property tax is as high as 2.5% even after exemptions. 

Hello Fellow BP members,I am in a state where medical marijuana is legal.

Your income could go up, you could lose a job, or you could be faced with a life-changing medical event.

I know the answer may seem lretty obvious but I’m hoping to get your advice anyways.My wife and I live in Blacksburg Va at Virginia Tech and she’ll be graduating medical school in 2020 when we’ll probably have to leave and go somewhere else for residency.From the general consensus of some of the real estate agents in town who know the market well, they said that this is a pretty hot market and prices are going up fast, and considering how much VT is growing and Blacksburg growing I can see why.

A transfer to a trust is exempt from due on sale violations since banks will view transfers to a trust as an estate planning tool.

Just because most action sellers don't bother to complete the proper disclosure documentation (and most buyers don't ask for it) doesn't mean that they aren't required to.Note that plenty of sales (regardless of auction status or whether its an as-is sale) are exempt, but because they fall under foreclosure or tax sale exemptions, not by virtue of the fact that it is an auction/as-is sale.  

The process has been held up because of two collections on my credit report for a $100 internet bill I forgot to pay when I moved out of state two years ago, and very small medical bill that I also forgot to pay.

A new medical or law school opening provides an opportunity for more long-term tenants who sleep, study, repeat - and pay on time. 

It also depends on why they are behind-did they change jobs, have a medical problem and took time off work or are they just not good at handling their money?  

He gutted a house in Camden, NJ where we planned to live then we decided to sell it to get money for him to go to medical school.My husband and I are still trying to clarify our goals for investing.
