I just closed on a duplex in Indianapolis: purchased price: $11000Rehab costs: $14000Total costs: $24000Rents: $600 on each side for a total of $1200 / month for the duplex

I hate to say it, but I can see the inspector face now.

If it is a larger property, I pay for a home inspector.

For instance, when I do short sales, I get paid by adding a procesing fee that is paid legally through escrow the exact same as a psysical inspector or a termite company.

My name is Kevin Welch and I am a licensed home inspector from central Massachusetts.

At the risk of asking what may be the dumbest question ever, are there any hard money lenders lending for single or multi family properties in Indiana.

People and strategies change all the time and maybe things have...

The lender will not make any repairs and will not give any repair concessions should your inspector find anything needing repair.

South in SC the mayor commissioned a task force lead by a minister (heavy emphasis on community councils) to fine landlords for leaving tenants garbage curbies out, any police action due to noisy tenants, require a local agent to stand in for the landlord (including allowing entry for codes inspectors, fixing problems noted etc)They want all landlords to register.

Keep in mind that our business model is focused on the more blue collar areas of Indianapolis, and the home prices are in the $60K to $75K range.

So my realtor is going to refer me to a home inspector because they want to close by March 10th.
