To do title search, is it reliable if I just pay the private online website to get the ownership info?

Banks are not required to fill out a property disclosure.They are selling "as-is".During due diligence a buyer has their "right to their own inquiry".Meaning if they want to spend the money to satisfy whatever report or inspection they want they can go ahead.If a listing agent only has one picture the inside is usually trashed or the agent is just lazy with the pictures.I like to give a overview of condition but say "information deemed reliable but not guaranteed".There is simply no way for a broker/agent to know all problems associated with a property.With my listings I want to be 100% transparent with the numbers and the condition I see.It makes no sense to blow smoke and then pray the buyer will overlook things.What happens is everyone's time is wasted and the buyer cancels the contract.You look bad to your seller and the buyer and have now lost 2 clients for future business.So give the information you know and be accurate as much as you can with the data.

Rentometer isn't going to be a reliable estimator -- you need to either talk to a local property manager who would be familiar with rents or do an analysis yourself.Next, make sure that you have a good grasp of the rehab costs.

Focus your time and energy on learning one strategy, implement it, master it and systemize it.

Stick with the old energy and water wasters and save the call and the down time.

Also renters are picky nowadays because they have many alternate choices in this market and will look for energy efficient stuff like newer windows in the home to help their monthly bill.

Looks like we will be trying to find a reliable "agent" as you guys have said.

At 25 you have a lot of energy and my know how or eager to learn doing your own work (rehab).

Would be a great small CCW gun for an investor who would like to keep a light .380 in his/her pocket all day and Ruger reliability is phenomenal.

I can afford to hold property for longer amounts of time and 2. afford a class of rentor that's more reliable. and thank, any and all help would be great!
