Any title agent worth their weight in dirt should be able to answer that for you.I would focus more on finding the next of kin and getting a contract.

I am trying to organize the budget template a little more strictly because we need to track every cost, from framing materials, labor, to the budget for lighting fixtures.Does anybody have any experience in this?

I wrote this because I know that I am not the only one out there that had this experience and wanted to bring light to the topic.

Property must be positive cashflow and must meet other criteria like residential area, light to moderate traffic, desirable areas that people want to live in, and not next to some incompatible use.

I have some nice small style (light weight) used furniture that I bought off craigslist dirt cheap.

If you are a strong person, you can handle a small problem and probably don't even view it as a problem.I have been trying to view my problems in a different light.

Below are the average utilities I see every month:- Water/Sewer: $180- Trash (dumpster): $115- Gas: $190- Electric (common area and outdoor lights): $50- Snow Removal: $350/year- Lawn Care: I do this myself so I'm not sure I hope this helps!

Carpet is 5 years (i believe), things like lighting fixtures, cabinets, sinks, vanity, bath, toilets etc, get added to the basis of the house and depreciated over 30 years.I STRONGLY SUGGEST READING NOLOS book!!!!

Leave porch light on.

@Brandon Hall, can you shed any light on this subject?
