In those cases, landlords would have to provide 90 days’ notice and pay one month’s rent to the tenant, though landlords with four or fewer units would be exempt from the payment.”So it looks like if you buy a property under market rents, you have to do a “major” rehab AND give tenants 90 days notice AND a full months rent for them to move out.

If I had attempted to adhere to the 70% "rule" over the years I would have done a hundred fewer deals and missed out on seven figures in net profit.That said, I still never really buy anything from wholesalers, as I find they're usually coming in at more like 90% when I used REAL ARV and rehab numbers and not their nonsensical projections.

I estimate I'd probably save a few grand by not going though a bank.One place I would not try to save money is the inspection, that would still be a must.Essentially, I can qualify for a mortgage but I would like to have fewer mortgages on the books for future investments and I hate paying all those fees.Any advice?
