Annapolis, for instance, has permit and inspection requirements, and more strict fair housing than federal.  

Such instances are rare.   

In that one instance, I could not get off to go inspect or take the pics.

Our very own @Ali Boone here on BP, for instance.

For instance, we like to buy properties in nicer areas. 

Typical down is 25% with some instances of lender allowing a seller carryback of 10% for putting 15% down. 

You should Google the landlord laws for your state and county.Some counties do not require you tell them when, others do.For instance, in Baltimore County, they will receive a notice on their door that an eviction is set, but it does not state when the eviction will take place.Do you still need to file for the actual eviction, or is the Sheriff already scheduled show up on 8/18 at Noon?

There are also the Tiger Moms which are famous.  

Have you ever ran into an instance where you were over dressed and it made the client uneasy?

So, if I buy a home, for instance that is liveable and in average maintained shape but just needs some cosmetic fixing up, don't do any more major remodeling or it probably won't pay for itself?
