Regardless, the agent will be seen as the expert in the room when dealing with the public. 

When on the Pennsylvania Allegheny County website(Recorder Of Deeds) specifically, how do I know if the buyer of the property paid cash or took a mortgage?

I am typically looking for at least $100 cash flow per unit and at least a 10% cash on cash return.I like to be conservative when underwriting annual expenses, and my typical underwriting guidelines are: Insurance - $500/unit Trash Removal - $1000 for under 10 units, $2000 for over 10 units Advertising & Marketing - $250/unit Liscenses & Fees - $50 to $100/unit depending on county Repairs and Maintenance - 5% of gross rental income Snow Removal & Landscaping - $1000 Management Fees - 5% of gross rental income Real Estate Taxes - from public record Utilities - use figures from listing or $150 per month per unitCould it be that most listings are grossly overpriced or am I being too conservative?

@Jules Dominguez Given that the property is listed in a public auction, what do you feel you contribute to the formula that someone else (with money) would lack?

I'm a Realtor Broker/salesperson and have done about 250 deals as a GLVAR (Greater Las Vegas  Assoc. of Realtors) member and about another 40 auction purchases in both public auctions and Trustee Foreclosure auctions as well.

In most cases the general public has no idea what the designations mean.

@Dontae ScottWelcome to the site.Signs like that are very easy to find online.FYI the term bandit signs refers to signs that are illegally placed on public or private property.

Finally, because most REITs are publicly traded, they have traditionally experienced substantial volatility along with the stock market.

You need a CPA for public accounting matters, corporations requiring financial statements.
