I'd estimate, and it's only an estimate, that 25% of the title claims I worked on were created at the time of closing, i.e. incorrect legals on the deed and/or mortgage, failure to pay off prior liens, errors in recording the docs, failures to have the docs properly executed, and on and on and on.Please also keep in mind many settlement agents are only allowed by law to prepare documents and close transactions where title insurance is being issued. 

I def agree with you on the slum areas, I'd rather stay out of those areas too.

I'd figure it'd be when the Title is changed over to the son. 

So I'm a 22 year old investor just starting out I started flipping my first house this year and I plan on being finished with it in a month or two and I've been looking at how to invest my profits for the most return on investment, I'm leaning towards seller financing vacant properties and master lease options but I want to get another opinion, so if anyone has any suggestions I'd be glad to hear it.ps.

A couple of things I'd consider...1.

Hey everyone, I just made a post about questions to ask agents to make sure I get a good one starting out, so I figured I’d do the same for property managers.

Not saying there aren't great deals and great opportunities, but they'd probably be a bit harder to find.If you're looking at Indy, I'd recommend checking out the north/northeast side, around Carmel, Fishers, or Castleton, that whole (pretty wide) area.

After, I'd be ecstatic....

If they haven't responded in 30 days, I'd post a note saying as they have not replied within the required time, then they need to vacate the premises within X days (at least 30 days). 

I'd rent in Jacksonville for a minute and keep your current and run it as an STR vs. selling.
