How long of a time period do I tell my RE agent to write in the contract so I have enough time for a hard money lender to do their due diligence on the property I’ve submitted them and choose to fund?

If I had to choose, I would pay off my primary.  

Looking for a reputable Property Management firm in the Lehigh Valley PA or Phillipsburg, NJ area. 

Whole question is the contract between the two of you.If you shopped around before choosing, the renting would be included in the monthly fee (because it's in their interest to increase their earned commission).If you got a fix fee per month, then likely you will also get nickelled and dimed with other fees like advertising.

I'm just getting into Real Estate Investing, and want to get a proper background on the terminology, the lingo, and just get a feel for everything so I can choose my path.I was thinking about buying books, online courses, in person courses, and of course these Podcasts.Just wanted your opinion, what would be the most structured way of getting a Real Estate education.

I want all of that separate and if I so choose to keep this deal in my portfolio I will assign it over to my holding company or flipping company. 

Reminder her there are other choices for Internet service and whatever she chooses will be at her expense too.

I am looking for a reputable licensed home inspector available in the City of Baltimore.

Either can choose to wholesale.
