I don't know how the credit repair companies work for short cuts.

Not to far from where I live is a house that is abandoned and boarded up.

Hello Board,I have my first purchase in the UW process right now and I have a question in terms of my long term growth that I was hoping we could address.

Unfortunately, the poster has been posting the same question on all the real estate boards to get some play for the link.I've removed the post and poster.

There has been some excellent info posted on these boards.

Even maintenance can be tricky because some areas have habitability standards that require the landlord to make certain repairs.Ryan brings up a key point.

This should include hardie boards, 1 coat of primer, 1 coat of paint, all labor and materias, and a warranty.

You can delegate a lot in time (after you have enough properties to cover the overhead) but the key is managing your delegation.

Wheatie nailed it on making sec dep slightly less than one month, in my humble opinion.I'll take check if we're not handing them keys.

I've reviewed many contracts from other Realtor boards, FSBOs ,ect and you really do get what you pay for, wrongly adjusted taxes or HUD-1 fees will quickly make up any savings that you got trying to avoid an attorney or real estate agent.In my little over 2 years in real estate, I've caught something around $10,000 in mistakes by the title company or the selling party.
