If you simply mean it is an traditional residential investment loan, no harm no foul.

Of course this would depend on what we could get it for.This auction requires 3% down to bid, and then requiresan additional 7% (so total 10% of final purchase amount) within 10 days of the auction.

This applies if they request an additional spray or the bug guy tells me there is a problem in the unit. 

It's just a little greasing of the palms and as long as there's no harm and no disturbance, everything is smooth. 

I would never give up anything up front unless it is for simple moving costs (under $1K post move), if beyond, make an additional agreement that you can attach to retail sale of home.Seller will have to wait for his $ just like you do.$430,000 (ARV)-$310,000 (Balance could be plus or minus several thousand)-$20,000- Holding Costs (insurance, utilities, PITI, etc) about 6 months...

A good broker will FaceTime on site or send video walk throughs and will help shepherd the application process through, in addition to having specific local knowledge.FYI streeteasy started charging brokers to list rental last year and so it's not complete, particularly at lower price points.

They sell additional written materials but you should not need them.

In addition, having a true motivation to help people is necessary to building the required patience to operate a successful sober home.

No biggie, I'll just add it to an itemized list and take it out of their security deposit. 

Well worth the investment to make sure you don't inherit any additional expenses (irs lien, back taxes, etc).
