Look to see if proper permits were pulled.

I'm applying for a Long Form permit for one of my properties & the city of Boston requires a certified plot plan.

With prospective tenants, it's usually the prior landlord (versus the current landlord) that has more to say and a more practical picture of their rental payment history in my experience. 

Most likely anyone who buys it is going to have to pull and pay for new permits to complete the work.

What is the process for a demo permit and the cost?  

Websites, IDX, syndication, prospecting utilities and more, the platform offers the complete real estate marketing package.

You can purchase in your name alone when you're married but if there is a divorce then it will vary by state and circumstance as far as what will happen.Another affidavit you may encounter in the future that is even more retarded is when the city won't let you pull your own permits on an investment property unless you sign a statement saying you are going to live in the property.

If you are buying properties at the end of Q3, you are going to have fewer "eyes" on your rentals; however, by purchasing early in the season (start of Q2), rehabbing and getting it onto the market (whatever you do to find renters) by mid-Q2, you have a lot of prospective tenants.Again, the numbers work or they don't, but if you are getting a great deal in December, make sure that the relative discount covers carry costs in the event you cannot get a wonderful tenant in the first 45-60 days.

(if you are wholesaling that's not something you can guarantee)  It is also hard to advertise a property to prospective buyers when its listed with an agent.

Also going to check the last roofing permit / flood zone info.This is my first deal so any advice would be appreciated.
