Anyway, knowing the street, and the neighborhood, I didn't want some realtor putting a number in the banks head (higher than the 86k I'm sure) so I opted to take my certified funds and buy the sucker.

I am a newbie real estate investor but I am a real estate agent and a certified Pricing Strategy Advisor, which is a fancy way of saying an agent that can proficiently run comps lol.

The separation of deposits is very important, 2 accounts is a minimum as you can not legally use the deposit monies on just any old thing.I have a savings account with the deposits in it and when a tenant moves out and is due back part or all of their deposit I just get a bank check drafted from that account so certified funds are returned to the tenant. 

So expensive that at some point I got fed up, signed up for a HVAC training in the local vo-tech, and got EPA certified.

I am married to a wonderful man named Pete who is a journeyman Welder by trade while I am a certified Massage therapist.

Also, looking for a reliable certified home inspector.Thank you

In any case, little bro got a great house at about $20k under market value & the lender kicked in 6% for closing costs (that was still ok at the time), so he needed a certified check for $3.50 to close the deal.

I'm a certified property manager through IREM and as well an avid residential real estate investor.Cheers,
