People are buying and selling boarded-up homes in Cuyahoga County regularly, but I do not imagine that there are POS inspections before ANY of those Title transfers, where the price paid is often just land value.And as far as being able to rent out any bought property in Ohio, I have heard from a company that performs home inspections that "unfortunately, Ohio does NOT have any pre-tenanting inspection requirements".

He bought about two years ago with very little down, triggering a PMI payment.Between regular mortgage payments and subsequent appreciation (mostly appreciation, as it sits on the water, on a canal) there is now substantially more than 20% equity in the house.The issuing bank is telling him that regardless of the equity in the house, he has to carry the PMI for a minimum of five years before he can get rid of it.Is this correct?

Quick question about what I regularly see at closing tables.Usually as soon as the loan closes, it is sold / assigned to someone else.

Then the regular rental amount starting July 1st.Does anyone here split the deposit?
