Making some quick cash on a wholesale is great, but don't be under the impression that it is a good plan in the long term.

My impression has been no, they are not required by the state to be provided by the landlord. 

@Robert LeonardAn impressive HOA, yes.

Some background:- I made the offer without inspecting the house, but basing myself on my agent photos and impressions (I live 2.5 hours away and market is quite hot so had to act quickly).

I have a Masters degree in English Composition and Rhetoric, and I am a veteran that has went overseas twice.

Your question gives me the impression that you've never been to the suburbs.That's just how properties are designed in the burbs.

==================My impression was that the City went from unmetered accounts to metered with RFID capability.

They pulled the listing and relisted it with and ARV of 290K......which no comp could be found to support......I'm really not impressed with any of the wholesalers, I have met..........However, they are going to keep jacking up the prices if they can keep selling them to people who can't or don't see the need to run a simple comp on google.

In fact, I recently bought one through Clever Investor which is in my area (Your First Flip) and I gotta say, it is excellent so far with a lot of detailed information, usable forms, etc, so I'm impressed and feel it has been worth the investment.

Buying a house that needs no work might get me decent cash flow but then I am in at market value and I hate market value.That's impressive.
