I would find a local GC in that area to discuss with further and they could walk you through the scope and process.

Security Deposit is for damages or them walking away.

I was like walking on the clouds.

I did push back and requested to lower my cap down to 3k, also adding a timeframe to this otherwise I can walk out of deal, also requested a NFA from city in order to proceed.

He walked away with $50k he did not deserve, while I was paying for her bills so that they did not put a claim against her house (lived on a a private road that was just repaved, new windows, etc.) 

Everything is for sale…….at the right price :) Not gonna say yes until I'm like 60 years old and ready to walk off into the sunset.

Educate yourself on how to identify/fix the most common problems for your main systems and then walk your tenant through it.

If I sell it, ill walk away with about $85,000 and I’ll use that to get a 3-4 unit house.

What I’ve seen, if the floor is not 100% level, walking on it will pop open the seams with time.

@Peter MorganComplain to the electric company that the bill cannot be correct.Have them walk you through the bill and test your ref and A/C draw.If the electric company will not check your draw, hire an electrician to do it, and find the issue.Could be an estimated bill.
