Yup, every time...and yes, they are at $150 these days (at least in my experience)...I understand the need to rekey, as FNMA uses the same keys for large batches of properties, so giving you a key would essentially allow you into many other FNMA properties (and allow other buyers into your property if they swipe a key).But, the $150 is ridiculous.

If you choose to make that election, then from the IRS' perspective, your LLC is essentially a corporation.If you elect to be taxed as an s-corp, earnings still flow through to your 1040, but you have some additional options with respect to breaking up salary and dividend payments.

I had some 12 paks of diet coke that we'd bought on sale a few months ago.

Title insurance is essentially an insurance policy that protects you in the case that a previous owner or some other person tries to make a claim that they own part/all of your property and/or try to encumber your property based on action of a previous owner.Here's a real-life example of how title insurance is helping me TODAY:I have a closing this afternoon on a property I purchased 2.5 years ago.

My guess is OBL was relying on secrecy for protection instead of a private army which would have essentially broadcast his location.

For my S Corp, I receive a salary plus I get dividends which are taxed at only 15% as opposed to the marginal tax rate.Check with your own CPA, however, good record keeping is essential in any business, particularly RE.

Essentially it only means that EPA is aware this product exist on the market.

If you consider compounding effects, it's actually closer to 6% annualized return, and this still doesn't take into account the discount rate (remember, cash in-hand today is worth more than the same amount of cash in the future).Assuming a discount rate of about 3% (what you could get in a 3-year CD at essentially no risk), the actual discounted return is about 3.2%, or less than half of the 6.6% it appears to be using simple annual percentage rate calculations.So, if the OP thinks he can get more than 3% return on the $300K, he should take the $300K now...

I wouldnt waste money upgrading it besides the BARE essentials.
