( Washington has no state income tax)  but its negotiable.. and a seller in a hot market might say NOPE you pay it if you want this deal.. this has nothing to do with clean title.. totally different things.. so I am not familiar with that state if there is a transfer tax or excise tax upon the transfer of real estate but i am sure someone with some experience will hopefully pop on here and enlighten us..

@Jake Gordon , this questions pops up frequently on BiggerPockets.

I've been meaning to go to the Mesa meetup but keep having work/other responsibilities pop up.

My advice is to do research on the different types of companies (large companies, smaller companies, mom and pop companies) to see if they meet what you are looking for as a new agent.

@AlanGrobmeier I redid the roof and many other capital improvements so those surprises should not pop up.

Water intrusion issues and leaks are paramount.There are going to be maintenance items that will pop up for the buyers in the next few years, maybe even a couple tiny ones in the first year. 

New train stations are popping up in strategic locations which all but makes sure to enhance living (in terms of public transportation) here.

We’ve had a few small issues pop up but still managed to save some cash over the year.. now we’re a little more comfortable.

Gotta be aggressive when something good pops up. 

@Seth Ferguson so a good question then would be is the upcoming BP conference deductible for small mom and pop landlords like myself?
