This firm did the thing that most people prefer- paying on the due date and you're very unhappy about it. 

Also, here’s our list of preferred cleaning product partners that we receive a kickback on to sustain our extremely high overhead that never had a profit margin to sustain since it was only ever funded through VCs whose goal it has been to establish a platform monopoly by bankrupting the others guys so we can set the rules all by ourselves. 

Additionally, what are you preferred methods of financing for lower cost properties such as these?

Most renters I have encountered prefer a month to month lease it allows me to fill my vacancies within the same month I know my tenants are leaving. 

If you don't have a lender yet and you need one, line that up as well, preferably somebody who can move quickly and give you a loan terms sheet on a property in a timely manner.It could be argued that this is an odd time to flip a house but conversely, not a lot of people have rehabs going right now, so if you get started and finish when things start returning to normal you will be one of the only available options.

Your job, your other investments, your plans for your family, college, retirement, health, age, and personal preference all affect what you should do.Personally, I'd be pulling the cash out to grow.

But for listed properties, I prefer to either go with the listing agent (they fight harder for you when they get both sides of the commission), or use the seller's agent but state that you have no agent and wish to submit your offer with no commission on the buyer's side.

The current market conditions are certainly a concern and regardless of how I decide to move forward I would prefer to wait until we have a good sense of how this will play out.

  ;)I generally prefer to have architects (rather than engineers) prepare drawings that need to be submitted to building departments because they are more up to date with building codes and other language that usually needs to be on the drawing set. 

We are thinking of buying a small condo in the Destin, FL or Gulf Shores, AL area... we prefer Destin.
