I've already gotten an EIN for the trust, but I'm really unclear on how I do his final taxes this year... the IRS site says I need to submit form 1041 for "trust-related income"... but what about the rest of his tax environment??  

Ask your realtor what is the sold/asked ratio is and how many offers were made on the ones submitted.

I just submitted an offer on a property in Nampa, ID and am looking for some advice.

Before submitting an offer.

A few days pass and the LO calls me to say that upon further review, the maximum loan amount is not the original $380,000, but is now $225,000 because of the type of employment one of the borrowers has.TL, DR; Your agent should contact the lender to see if all supporting docs have been submitted before accepting an offer.

and if so what proper procedures should be done or paperwork should be submitted.

Lastly the one sure fire way to know is by having the seller submit to a core sample.

Feel like if he submits to collections it's just part of his process (or emotions) and has no merit. 

@Blake Charles garrickDid you submit a project yet?

I submitted a "low ball" offer for a foreclosure in California and received a response from the listing agent that said all offers must be submitted through propoffers.com.
