@Jeremy Basiger  it just sounds like you do not have an established relationship with this agent, and I agree, a iphone photo of a bank account is not enough.Those that conduct themselves in a professional manner will get that treatment in return.

I'd conduct a background check- You can use Cozy.co to accept an online application along with the credit and background check.

Hi there, I am in a bit of a weird situation and I am seeking advice for moving out so I will be as concise as possible.I recently moved to Seattle and my spouse and daughter are moving out this week to come up here but my landlord is conducting what seems to be funny business.

Just keep your fingers crossed that there are no claims on the title that weren't discovered when the last title search was conducted.

Question for the Canadian wholesalers: did you start an entity and conduct all your business through it and if so, how is the income taxed?

I would be cautious going forward that you do not give the impression of discriminating, as "secret" shoppers sometimes check rental listings for such issues, especially if someone complains. 

Without any intervention from A or B, the bank will send checks totaling the full $20k once the final draw inspection is conducted and passed because that means 100% of the SOW is completed. 

However, if you are a single member LLC, then there are no partners to argue with for operations and dissolution, so I'd honestly say that the operating agreement essentially allows you to conduct business for the LLC and open a bank account and that's about it because you aren't really accountable to anybody else.  

I've already been charged for an appraisal (last week) but the appraisal has yet to be conducted.

Trust that even though I have not been inside to conduct a thorough inspection and estimate rehab fairly, I will say though that a home that has been vacant for the past 2 years may have quite  some work to be done.
