That is going to be the most reliable way to post and respond to ads, Craigslist just has to many security measures for computers to try and get around.

Take measurements and go to a few stores and stress the fact this is an investment property, price is most important.

Valuation in real estate seems best measured against income, and either way never a function of prices only, perhaps even less investor narratives.

once your floor is level its time to begin. your very first course of tile is very important/I did not really understand all the books methodology of measuring and finding the square etc. what I did is laid one or two courses without thinset but with spacers.once I was confident that these were straight I laid the next tile next to them. point to note when laying the first cemented row of tile next to the trial run be sure not to push the the trial row out of position or you will end up being crooked. tip four get the right consistecy do not mix too much at once. for a beginner perhaps 1/4 of a bag then try 1/2 bag.

Samantha,Not sure if you're still looking for input from investors, but since I just discovered your thread researching MACK I figured I'd chime in.Unfortunately I don't have any experience with the software itself, but I can give you some thoughts on what I look at when studying a proforma.An ideal proforma for me includes:Multiple external and internal photos of the propertyRehab status# of beds, baths, garageMarket rents (or, if rents are estimated using something like the 1% rule, noting how they were derivedDefault allowances for vacancies and maintenance reserves > 0% (this was one thing that immediately turned me off in the "available properties" email I got from MACK last week)Monthly mortgage payment estimates assuming a 20% or 25% down paymentInsurance estimatesProperty tax estimatesCash flow ($), Cap rate, cash-on-cash return, return on equity, and ROI (with both cash-only and leveraged #s displayed where relevantMonthly & annual views of income & expense estimates10/20/30-year financial scenarios for all of the key measures of returnNeighborhood info is icing on the cake -- schools, crime rate, public transit, and compsI realize that's a lot to absorb.

Everybody wants to DIY and cut the expenses, but sometimes these preventive measures get fail.

I thought about it and called weights an measures and they stated they could care less (it would nt be regulated by them).

@Michael Cornell According to Fannie Mae, the waiting period is 4 years, measured from the discharge date, for a Chapter 7, unless there are "extenuating circumstances", in which case it could be 2 years.  

Title coverage generally covers only surface rights as these are reasonably measurable financial losses that can be valued, we can only speculate if gold, or silver, copper, oil, natural gas or diamonds exist 5 miles up from the center of the earth and title coverage can only insure known assumable valuations, not to speculative values.
