If someone randomly reached out to you and said I get deals etc etc you might be skeptical but if they had a current deal in the area, you would most likely feel they are more authentic and that they actually have deals (in other words, you are not wasting time talking to them).

I bet the bank will regulate the appraisal (since this is a point of extreme liability for them they typically use an appraisal clearing house service that randomizes the selection of the appraisal from a certain pool of appraisers, so the lender needs/wants to use that clearinghouse service). 

A lot of people have been talking about rent strikes on on social media in May.

Apologies if this has been already asked.my dad wants to 1031 an existing rental and rent out the replacement property to me and my family.The replacement property would likely be around ~$300K more than the relinquished property, and ideally, we would borrow that.But my dad is long retired and his income currently consists of rental income and social security.

I have only just discovered this website and it has been amazing , I truly spend more time on this than any other social media platform.

Find any random property on Zillow for instance, plug in the numbers and see the results.

Purchasing our first home was an eye opening process for us and our family.Instead of spending hours of my life mindlessly scrolling through posts from "influencers" on instagram or other forms of social media during the COVID-19 Pandemic, I decided to pick up some books and look into other ways of making money outside of my income from the military.

Now, after courts being closed for so long, and perhaps considering social distancing guidelines after they open, it might go for months more.

It's a great article, but that's a drop in the bucket compared to the mass atroturfing campaign against landlords that's now being pumped on a regular basis across social media, Reddit, YouTube and every mainstream fauxgressive rag and media outlet around the country and the globe.

So I was thinking about applying that same mentality to this situation, and find creative means to press-forward when so many of my competitors are likely stopping or halting, due to the pandemic.From a safety perspective, to emphasize social distancing, I was going to propose that either the current owners do a video walkthrough via a live video call with us, or that they let us get the keys to allow us to do the walkthrough alone.
