Where Do you you get the standard purchase agreement for california.

From what you have written it appears that you haven't even visited the property.

I know that the California Association of realtors has a form but is this form required to be filled. 2.

I need to replace a dozen original 1920s windows in a CA stucco Tudor house.

I usually do some preliminary fact checking before visiting any properties.

Right on the SJ county HA website it says tenants pay about 30% for the Housing Choice Voucher Program (Sec8)....just like every other county in CA.

Everything I said above is only good for California.

In California that wouldn't fly.

Were you just not comfortable finding a good property manager and visiting the properties when you were able to (vacation maybe)?

Troy Baughman,The best thing you can do is keep a log of what properties you visit on what days with the Odometer reading; however, many auditors will accept a log that only shows the places traveled to and a MapQuest or Google Maps printout of recurring destinations to give an approximation that it is realistic.The log should have: Date, Miles driven, business purpose of trip.There are many great apps out there as James Vermillion mentioned.
