Keep in mind they are likely paying below market value, so giving them a small amount won't be enough to cover the new market rent that they would be moving to.3.

How can I negotiate to buy a house that didn't sell at $749k on the open market, subject to the existing mortgage with cash over, seller pay the broker fee and i buy "as is, where is"?

If so, self managing might be a good fit for you.I'm more of a "path of least resistance" person, so if I can pay someone else to do it, I usually will. 

Or maybe you can partner with someone to borrow $10,000 today to make the repairs and pay them back $12,000 in one year (20% interest).You also need to really crunch the numbers.

You don't make enough to pay lawyers, fines or anything else from your cash flow. 

Hi Allen,It seems odd the lender is pushing for the 10 year ARM product when you are willing to pay 0.50%.

Whether the property is $4k or $40k, you are still paying $5k to me to sell it.It should be obvious to you why this is, but it looks like it's not.

Are they a good tenant and paying rent?

My question is, does the fact that we rented the home exclude us from being eligible on not paying taxes on the first $500k proceeds from selling after two years?
