@Adam MittermeierJust to confirm that this is a HUD Home listed at hudhomestore.com and not a reverse mortgage that sometimes gets called a HUD but is a very different process If this is a HUD, there is no way your agent or the listing agent knows the number or amount of the offers and there is absolutely no highest and best with HUD.

Mortgage recordation taxes, lender fees, title attorney fees etc.

@Jamie Moore If your properties are encumbered buy a large mortgage and you have insurance (the right type) and maybe even an umbrella policy you should be pretty safe.I am getting ready to have a Revocable trust created to own a master LLC, this master LLC will own a bunch of LLC's that own individual properties.I have a bunch of LT rentals that have no mortgages that I need to protect.

I can't get a new mortgage being I am currently unemployed staying at home raising her so buying where I am local in Colorado is not an option.

Hi everyone,I am considering selling my primary residence in Portland to raise some more cash (already mortgaged) but would like to continue living in the house for 1+ year.  

$89,000 for duplex$1,000 for mold remediation (the original surface mold we saw) and $1,000 for washer and dryer hookup$5,400 for closing and pointsWe would house hack and the other side would rent for $600 paying the mortgage/taxes plus change. 

I am looking at the possibility of taking it off the market (I am in a 3 month contract with realtor) and trying to sell the house on contract or Lease with Option, and securing a mortgage on the property to get my cash back.I paid cash for the house and renovations using a HELOC which I do have to make interest payments on during that time. 

I recommend 'Commercial Mortgages 101.' 

My electrician strung me out for months and cost me thousands in mortgage payments, plus lost months rent.

My summer water bill could pay for a lot of mortgages in the Midwest ($600 to $700).
