That usually applies to Realtors, but if it applies to you, it's business days, besides, if you signed Saturday at 9 am, you have until Monday morning, what's the rush?

It seems you were in no rush to rehab and could have been waiting for some appreciation in that area.J Scott pretty much covered that topic quite well.Everyone needs a tax plan based upon THEIR situation.

The unknowing investor will be at a disadvantage and could miss out on deals becuase they couldn't make a timely decision.I'm not endorsing a specific text book, but any written as a business text will put you years ahead of those who do nothing but chase guru books, I guarantee it!

Awesome -- now you've got to read the 500,000+ forum posts . . . lots of work ahead of you!

The company went ahead and did the work without his knowledge.

Between depreciation, income, and mortgage interest you're probably gaining cash on year end taxes, making it more cash positive than you're counting... then again, the best laid plans of mice and men :) It's just a spreadsheet afterall.In the most broad sense I am with @Joel Owens- Odds are good that if you sell in Aug, move into an apartment while looking for a good 2-4plex, and then finance that 4 plex with another FHA loan you'll likely come out way ahead.

Real Estate in areas such as O.C. will appreciate in the years ahead, and those investing now know that, and are positioning themselves for future appreciation.O.C. has Billionaires, Centi Millionaires, Millionaires, and working class people.

We are not in a rush to move but would like to start doing repairs and getting estimates for a new roof.

I may pay for the appraisal ahead of the financing in order to make sure that the owner has a realistic opinion of what the unit is worth at the time we haggle price.

I have asked my tenants to please give me a heads up if they will be late but rarely to I get any warning.
