I have negative net worth so nothing real valuable to protect in a lawsuit at the moment :) At some point I will get more serious with that as my financials should finally start swinging up as I go through my 30s here (college debt can be brutal!)

It takes me (I'm not a realtor) so much work to find these things, then to rehab them, then finally to get a tenant into them, that I think it would be too daunting if I was looking at much more expensive property.

If the statutes do not address your question, then the case law very well may give you the answer.3) make sure any case law answer to your question applies in your jurisdiction.Note about jurisdiction:Jurisdiction means a certain geographical area (for this conversation anyway - there are times when jurisdiction doesn't refer to geography.)The size of the geographical area depends on a number of factors.

You also need to know the sq ft of these homes, lot size, etc.

This can let you get more details about the condition, size, and amenities for the property.

We painted ($1000) and will replace the carpet before the new tenants move in.However, after 100 calls, 3 price reductions and over 30 visitors, no applications yet.The house does not have a basement in a state where most houses have basements.However, it's:1. clean2. similar size to other houses3. great yard4. has 2.5 garage5. no dishwasher6. some landscaping in the front from the previous renters.7. fireplacei am at a loss on why we are having trouble getting applicants to show up.

I have finally finished the rehab on my first investment property ever and thought this was interesting: When we varnished the floors, we didn't close the blinds backing out of a couple rooms and, well, couldn't walk back to close them because it takes a couple days to dry out.

Many will accept offers for 2 weeks, and then give top bidders a final chance to add a final best offer.
