My passion for real estate dates back to 2004 when I bought my first home 4/2 mother in law suite, with swimming pool in Pensacola, FL. 

I would check what your laws are.

I enrolled in the real estate program only to find out more about the business legal aspects so that I wouldn't get caught up with the laws and regulations.

I'm pretty inexpensive (about half compared to typical small firms) because I also work full time as an attorney, and merely practice on the side to assist with my real estate deals and pay down law school debt (which is mortgage-sized), but I'm also very good (graduated with honors, guest lecturer, published papers, etc). 

By MA law, you also need to have a Lead Certificate just to rent to a family with children under 7.

IRS liens get in line based on time just like any other lien, but an IRS lien has a 120 day right of redemption (and potentially longer in states where redemption periods are longer by state law).

So his specialty is property title, mineral lights, and multi-plot tie up, and my specialty is tax law and business analysis.A lot of my deal focus to start will be older mixed using buildings in commercial areas, namely small ground floor retail locations with 2-12 apartment units above.Scott

It's quickly becoming my belief that to make cash-flow in the greater Seattle Market, adding Mother-In-Laws is going to be the only way to stay local and be able to justify the housing prices. 

From what I know and have experienced it is the buyer's choice of title company.You may be interested in this link from the NAR website (National Association of Realtors):http://realtormag.realtor.org/law-and-ethics/law/article/2013/03/respa-rules-agents

@Rhett P State laws vary tremendously.
