I have no idea why the original builder agreed to this easement but I imagine it was a tradeoff to allow building right up to the property line.

I would imagine you contracted out the renovations you have listed above; did you utilize a contractor or multiple to complete the work?

I am looking at purchasing my first investment property shortly, and I would like to have a great inspector on my side to keep an eye out for the things that need more work than I imagined.

So, the key I would imagine is finding the deals.So far all I have to go off of in my research is Zillow, Trulia etc. as I don't have access to the MLS (yet).I could always "drive for dollars" on the weekends.

I imagine once we find the first 3 or 4 it'll be easy to go way beyond the 25 total we're shooting for, but we just want a manageable, tangible goal.

I imagine there is some process similar to when they are developed.

I'm very impressed with their Piece of Mind guarantee, imagine what a CPA would charge to represent you with the IRS or that they'd pay the difference on a mistake.Thanks, Mike

From here, I can only imagine where it would take me from here on out.

I think I was offered a service like a landlord insurance from my former property manager but I never really looked into it to determine costs, and I imagine that it requires you to use a property manager.

Am I imagining it or is $1150 a high cost for the following: -pulling up shingles around chimney -redoing flashing -installing a water/ice barrier Seems outrageously high for the amount of work involved!
