Three of his properties in Orange, TX flooded during Harvey and he only had insurance on one of them.

However, if the $31k lien makes the house “under water” he could claim the inability to bring additional cash to close, going back to the “ability to deliver clear title” clause.I’m just going off Our standard realtor contracts.

The cash flow and difference in purchase price make $$$ sense, and all of the maintenance, taxes and insurance will be paid by the seller.

I bet the same concerns about litigation existed when people first proposed credit scores and insurance scores.

The cylinder for this key is a different color that looks good with our standard color handsets. 

E&O Insurance/LLC won't be required as it's immediate family.DBA seems to be optional.

Insurance is $100 a month and PMI is another $100.

If you now the rents can support the principal, interest, taxes, and insurance and you can make enough to handle the expenses on the property I would go with a lender. 

Is 0.75 multiply against what is charged for rent for the month or is multiply to the cash flow I get after I subtract all expenses such as insurance, taxes, and paying the existing home mortgage?
