(I am STILL getting calls from letters from 2007.)Hi @Joshua WoollsFor someone just starting out or working in a new area I would use something like landwatch, zillow, any online selling forum to come up with a starting point for an offer.  

I just put out the rent sign yesterday in the window but didn't post anything online because the place wasn't ready yet- I hadn't even decided which vinyl planks to install downstairs and needed to steamclean the carpet upstairs. 

Would you be looking for a line of credit or a mortgage loan?

I found that if I disputed every negative item, that some of them had to be removed because the creditor didn't respond to the verification inquiry from the credit bureau.If you have high credit card utilization rates, but very few inquiries, then your scores can actually improve by asking for credit limit increases. 

This will add competition and I am not an analyst nor an expert in supply/demand but one would think rents in the District and surrounding areas will not have large gains in the upcoming future because of all the rental units coming online in 2015 and 2016.Thoughts?

Is there an online resource for a variety of real estate related documents?

If you had a heart attack, every single creditor you owe money to is still going to expect payment in the correct amount, and on time.

Every day I got emails from him with a couple new houses (or newly priced houses) to browse online.

One way is to see if the County Recorder's or Register of Deeds Office where the property is has an online records search system.

I can highly recommend @Daniel Hyman , CPA and his firm My Online Accountant, LLCI know he and his partner are originally from Houston, and have several clients in Houston.
