Money you spend prior to sale is the same as at any other time.When you sell, selling costs get subtracted from the selling price.

(Tax professional should be consulted prior doing so).With Solo 401(k) custodian is not required.

If you are going to buy an existing note (i.e. stepping into the shoes of a prior lender) you'll have to research the property, the borrower, the HML, and the associated documents.

We give all tenants a move-out instruction packet.

By presenting terms, questions, and instructions you may be putting yourself at legal fault/liability as well as your tenant.

We only accept checks from our tenants and charge them $30 if the check bounces, it happens occasionally.All payments (security deposits, fees and advance rent) must be paid at least 2 weeks prior to move-in via check but they don't get the keys or a lease signed by us until move-in day.

I am going to be making some trips out to the PA areas as I mentioned in the prior post in the near future to attend some of the REI club meetings.

Hopefully your lease states utilities must be in their name prior to occupancy.

As my fiancé and I are moving into one side of the duplex right now, and the tenant of the previous owner has signed a new 12 month lease with us, from everyone's prior experience, is there anything I should consider or look out for as we will be accessible to the tenant pretty much anytime...?

Doing any research on a property, other than the owner's mailing address, prior to an owner contacting is a complete waste of time.
