I will definitely use an agent for the next couple buys, and indefinitely for sales, but I'm looking to get more independent on the buy side.

I would also ask the assessor if properties are reassessed following a sale (in many jurisdictions they are).  

Just wondering , have you already identified any potential restaurants for sale? 

My question is can I keep the 85k that I will net from the sale in the bank?

If you set it at $1.50/cycle, how much are you really making?

The sales price would be $200,000, the property rehab would be approximately $80,000-$100,000 and the ARV would be anywhere from $400K-$450K.I’ve secured preapproval for a conventional homesense loan but the closing time on that is 45-60 days.The seller needs to have a fast close so I’m exploring HML or other options.I’m a first time rehabber so I’ve noticed that most HML lenders have really awful terms for first timers.I’m in North Carolina and was hoping somebody could direct me to reputable lenders that will work with me.

Appliances is what I do brand new on sale mid grade stainless.  

Are you trying to Whole sale?

If they do not make the sale or in this case a tenant then they lost out on their commission.

I have bought a house in the city of Philadelphia July 2016, the recording happened on that time and it has been a year so far , I was selling the property but the buyer insisted on using certain title company which made all things complicated and asked about the notices were sent by the sheriff's office to the old owner, which I never had or received or even sent to me that the Sherrif's send a notice to the old owner.Philadelphia county law said if it is a vacant property the redemption period is nothing ( this property was vacant for 10 years) if the property was occupied it is 9 months from the sale ( usually becomes a year with the recording time ), which already also elapsed, the title company who was closing the deal refused closing and asked me to do A quiet title action or lawsuit , so the old owner or his hires won't have any rights or legally won't have any rights in the property, then I was about to file that but the City officials who are responsible for the court process advised me that this case will be complicated because I will have to find that old owner who does not have any rights legally now already and service him the court case or his hires if he is dead.I am seeking your advice on the matter, and if you know any title company that is aware of the right laws and will to close for me this deal with any buyer please help me Ehab T.
