Also, no periodical is going to come out against them, because, once again there is money to be had all around.So what is a person to do, but do the wise thing and take their time, as their expense, and spend their own due diligence researching the information.At this point, I have done that.

If they are really late (some state, like mine, require a grace period), as others have said, your lease should cover it.

In addition, sometimes there is a waiting period so owner-occupants can bid first, but the crooked investors are snapping them up also..Depending on the neighborhood, we are having now to big over asking most of the time.

They sell it to an outside party that might hold for a period of time - maybe 1 year, maybe a decade - most likely NOT in an IRA account.

You pay $9k and they can't do the rest.

This analysis includes SFR's and MFR's.On the other hand, for the lower socioeconomic blue collar rentals (B class), I see rental rates will remain the same or a slight increase as we are still in the absorption period where vacant units are being converted to rentals.

Looking @ about $350 for 100 bandits and stakes for a total of 850 bucks.Not sure where to spend the rest.

So if you need to back out during the inspection period due to some severe issue, will that listing agent refuse to deal with you in the future?

If you are going to have to put 20% down you might as well go traditional finance and lock in a lower rate.Especially on commercial properties.Most buyers I work on deals with want to have owner finance of 10% they put down 10% to 15% and get the rest financed with a commercial lender.It all depends on your hold times.The risk is that if you owner finance and it comes due in five years what will be the interest rate at that time??

I'm debating whether to offer the remaining people a $50 drop in their rent if it can get them through the rest of their lease.
