Hi @Rick DoctorThe 2%, 1% or 0.8% rules are rules of thumb, something that allows you to determine quickly if a property is worth looking into further. 

If I agree to pay that fine, does it allow the seller to cure the title and issue a warranty deed?

I was with a bigger real estate company before I took a job that wouldn't allow me to actively be a real estate agent. 

@Kay KeovongphetFor the profit sharing potion (employer contribution portion) of the plan that following may apply if your employer allows for it: The Employer Contributions being withdrawn have been accumulated in the PSP Plan for at least 2 years.For salary deferrals (employee contributions) Any employee contribution (including any earnings on such amounts) may not be distributed prior to the the Participant’s severance from employment, death, or disability.

You have (presumably) paid the taxes and allowed your relatives as your guests to be on the property for purposes you agreed are voluntary and can be revoked at any time.

I'm sorry Ed, but what you proposing doesn't make sense and is now allowed.

If you can't, because the seller won't allow it, then pay your own title company to run title in advance before you plunk down your deposit. 

Some are free but you will usually get only landlines.Some  have a monthly subscription, prices range from 5$ - 20$ for phone numbers.Some of the sites allow unlimited searches and some are limited to a number of searches.If you have a big list you might prefer data append services where you would upload a list and get all the phone numbers added to your list at once.If you would like more info feel free to PM me.

The Estoppel will allow the exiting tenants to declare their personal property, current rent and the deposit on hold with the sell.
