I agree not to overpay, but do remember that real estate is very local.

Remember to persist and you will WIN!!!!

Remember a half acre of grass may be neat for a single family or someone's dream home, but is just more to maintain in a rental.

Ok, I've never done a sub to, and I'm ignorant here.Everything I can remember reading about it implies or refers to a title change.

I also remember when talking to my closing agent, he said that he had a client that filed the paperwork for over 50 contracts - and my closing agent confided that he wasn't sure how many that client would actually close.From a numbers perspective, this seems kind of crazy.

Remember facts and evidence make the case, do not walk into court expecting to win simply because you believe you are right.PS: you may actually have to do a official eviction prior to going to small claims court.Read up on your state landlord tenant regulations first.

Also remember....suing someone who needs your $35K means it's unlikely he has any money and attorneys are very expensive.....just a guess....ask him for his credit report....you'll probably never hear from him again.....I could be wrong. 

Sure you can always negotiate a cheaper price but remember they are usually cheaper for a reason. 

I used Praedo to get my loan officer license and again had no trouble passing, but I haven't used their real estate courses.Once you have your license, if you only plan to use it to help family, friends, and do your own deals, remember there are brokers who charge nothing unless you have a closing.  

Other than that, just remember to value the current tenants also and make sure you're not going to have a completely empty apartment this summer.
