The pitch deck will also get crafted alongside in anticipation for any investors that want to give a nobody like me a chance.I was thinking that with my lack of a track record, I can hopefully make up for that with presenting an actual deal rather than a fund's unknown future for example, as well as credible firms crafting the financials, PPM, and due diligence documents. 

, 6. and the 3500 title fee: how did you determine that (it seems like twice what I would have anticipated)? 

I have a duplex under contract that I anticipated paying $3,300 in annual property taxes (using the Indiana online property tax estimator), but they came in at $2,650...so maybe its already designated as a rental property?

My credit is good and I have no debt, so I don't anticipate having any issues getting traditional financing. 

A lot of people will open new credit cards (personal or business) in anticipation of large upcoming expenses.

I anticipated that it may be negotiable. 

Things take much longer than we anticipate.

With a anticipated adjustment to the real estate market SFH values will likely be hit the hardest. 

Your mindset should be to market the vacancy in anticipation by mentioning it around, don't be convinced of a long vacancy.

From this point forward you can anticipate payment issues, request for time extensions and ultimately falling behind and stop payments.
