Paying for a title search before even bidding then losing to people that may buy the house closer to market value. 

Good luck in this new venture!

I'd hand my buddy the 300-400k cash call our attorneys over to have drinks and loan him the money at 1% less than the lowest current loans they have.With the interest i will build cabins with a view to rent/sell, help my other friend get his fantastic new business venture up and profiting.Any spare time and money I have will be spent doing deals and working on pet projects. 

I was thinking the same thing about trying to answer as often as possible - if someone is shy or unsure if they should call and they end up giving it a shot, I better answer before I lose that lead haha.

Freezer breaks and they lose the $500 of steaks they just bought at CostCo?

The possible reasons to start eviction are:1. she may not really move and you'll lose another month or more of rent.2. you could tell a future reference that you filed and have paperwork to show as much if you happen to be taking this personally and don't mind going to the effortI've only had one guy pull the "use my deposit and last month's rent" thing on me. 

I am going to see if that makes any difference, but I would ideally like to start on this venture as soon as possible.  

I'm losing 2% annually.

If you can break out your numbers exactly to see where you are losing money that would be a helpful place to start and then you can pinpoint the problem. 

Seeing as I'm completely fed up with this house and am losing money daily I agree to their original offer and sign the contract.
