Just Google Baltimore city water bills.I still get bills for properties I sold last year.

I know that my contract included that when I sold.

If your loan is a commercial loan (by commercial I mean any loan not on a primary residence) there is a VERY high likelihood your loan will be sold.   

Long story short, we sold just recently and lost money because they wanted out and we did a poor job of running numbers when we bought them. 

There are multiple ways that the structure can be enhanced.You've brought up more topics than could possibly be done justice in a forum post....real estate investing is so broad, with an incredible array of tools and strategies - it sounds like you'd like to introduce your investors to so much at once.

I need to find what the 1995 FMV was on a house I owned and sold in 2013. 

I recently went through this with a duplex I sold for an acquaintance...we finally ended up changing the locks and keeping a key to each unit...we'd give 24-hour notice for showings and inspection and try to complete when they were at work...all according to the lease terms of course.This is a tough issue in general...keep us posted how this plays out.

I've bought and sold cheaper land with returns of 200-300%.

We did comps and the most any of them sold for was 160K.

I second cozy.coI’ve been using it these last few tenant cycles and it’s a great tool in many ways.1- if the tenant won’t pony up the $40 fee or take the time to do it, it’s a great indicator for me to who I’m dealing with2- I don’t have to take applications and money and I don’t feel bad for taking an app fee and not giving it to those applicants. 3- no need to collect ssn and to destroy4- Tenants can’t leave anything blank as they can with a paper app5- feels more formal and professional 6- generally the type of potential tenant I like to deal with that can use tech to communicate, which gives me a glimpse to how they’ll handle future complaints and requests.
