Now if you found something just extraordinarily out of order like all the plumbing in the house was actually faulty, or there was foundation damage, or something else that the average person would not be able to identify, then that's a perfectly good reason to utilize that clause or better yet, to try to renegotiate a price with the new information in hand.

The fact that it has not been rented out in years also causes reason for concern of the actual market.

Insurance is also a relationship business, so if you are also an insurance/ risk management professional or just dying to learn more about how exciting insurance is (it is actually a lot more interesting and complex than you think) CONNECT!

Now, I don't know your area, so I can't say if the criteria will actually get your place rented or not.

And that's probably to do with it being customary vs actually that time consuming...

I hope I might actually be able to enter the San Diego market again if things take a dump.

We are so far away from this that I would actually be able to run to the moon before it happens. 

The properties are actually duplexes, sorry I should have mentioned that.

@Adam Lacey you should get yourself pre-approved so you know what your actually capable of buying before you go submitting offers.

So when you say no money down do you actually mean 0?
