When a tenant signs a lease after 15th of the month should they pay the rent amount for the remaining days in the month or remaining days in the month + next month?

I really liked finding the probate houses there, which often have great structure and outdated paint/carpet.

That would be a good place to start if you don't have the capital to do the rehab.

I plan to put two duplexes on the property but with this high appraisal is there a smarter thing to do to pull that money out of it or just use it for better collateral for the construction loan most banks will lend on the transfer price within a seasoning period. we face the same issues for land entitlement and development.

It's frowned upon by EVERYONE in the industry.

Maybe this is coming from the contract didn't include the fact that the penalty was not promised.

Many times you will buy a property that is occupied and it takes time to make the units vacant and it takes time to do rehab work and that leaves little time to save money for the next down payment. 2.

Negotiating with the seller was straightforward, leveraging the property's condition to secure a $50,000 purchase price.
