Also have heard rumblings about the price gouging subject and how they will monitor it after the crisis subsides.

The Cincinnati Board of Realtors, if not Ohio, has outlined things like having the agent stay outside, so as to help facilitate social distancing. 

I'm new to this kind of real estate deals and wanted to know what I would need to lock down a verbal commitment, on say a subject to deal, to contract.

@Santiago Coppoletta were you wanting introductions to lenders or just advice around the subject?

Of course it is all subject to change daily and per tenant. 

In that case you would need to take out a personal loan, and would be subject to bank requirements.Your other option, if you find a house that needs repairs, is to take out a 203k or Homestyle loan.

My wife and I purchased our duplex with an FHA Loan, and so much of those loans are sooooo incredibly subjective it really depends on the lender, the underwriter, and the inspector that you get in the draw on how big of a pain in the *** the process will be. 

@Mark S, my 457B Plan last night updated its website to allow for up to a $100,000 withdrawal by adding this notice:“The Act will allow for tax-favored withdrawals up to $100,000, andThe additional 10% early withdrawal tax is waived.You’ll have up to three years to pay income taxes on the withdrawal.You can repay all or a portion of the distribution within three years; the repayments are not subject to contribution limits.”With 457B Plans, there is also never a 10% penalty for early withdrawals even without the CARES Act.  

Again, enormous fees are a bit subjective as inferred above. 

That 90k would still be subject to taxes when/if I ever sold that property.Can someone straighten me out here?
