I’ve seen a few disturbing posts recently, mostly on social media, but a few here on BP as well, where the posters are reacting almost with glee that we may finally be heading toward a dip in real estate so they can cash in on good deals.This post is strictly my personal opinion, but also a call for others in the real estate industry who came through the previous crash to provide some much-needed levity right now.

You would be forgiven for thinking it was Christmas Day....except, of course, Christmas Day is quite busy at Grand Central.It seems the entire of NYC is working from home as we finally start to take the virus seriously.

Hi Everyone, So after countless hours of listening to podcasts, surfing these forums learning from you all, and reading tons of articles/books I am super pumped to finally be closing on my first property in about a week (house hacking a 4plex)!

They then provide a "price list" and state the total of the items will be added to your final bill.

This is a rough estimation of what I came up with but by no means, it's the final state.

They did let me know of this rule, after I had finally found a 4-unit property I liked and sent them all the information needed to get a loan to get proof of funding and eventually put an offer on it.   

The roof is the only major expense and the final touche to complete the rehab.  

If your tenant is moving out, make sure an agreement is in place in regards to the final bill, as it will come after they've moved out.
