Do you have routine maintenance done?

So you sign a regular purchase agreement with the first party, and a sales agreement to the second party, and the title agent will give your check in the middle. 

Yes we still walk away from houses regularly, but it can be difficult as our inventory can be very small.  

Look up the regular pricing & you will be amazed.NEW GE Cafe push in $1975 electric range $623 (for an apartment we rehabbed). 

@Gerald R -Great question and one that we possibly overthink regularly...

So, maybe that's not a good thing to do on a regular basis.

As for would I use one on a regular basis during purchasing?

I have always found it easier to get hard money and then season the loan 6 months and then get a regular loan.

Tenant shall guarantee that the house be regularly cleaned and in good condition.

Ongoing routine maintenance tasks will save you a lot in the long run too...like pest control, tracking common utility usage, etc.Tenant screening is pretty much the same, but again, for class C you can expect high turn over rates, so plan for it.
