Still trying to learn as much as I can daily.

I would ask the seller to extend the length of the contract to lower your monthly payment.  

That said, you can still find the over-extended home owner / tired landlord with the ugly house and clean/fix it up to force appreciation.

This may involve her offering you owner financing with your deposit counted as a down payment and then with an extended time before you begin to make regular payments. give yourself enough time to due a 100% due diligence and to sell the house.

All of the lawyers were at the meals for extended conversations. 

Seller felt more comfortable with a cash flipper.All this to say the Austin Real Estate market is really crazy and hot with 130 people moving in daily they have to live somewhere.

What is the extend of the asbestos presence?  

I like to joke that I have many "boyfriends", and its nice that they all are interested in different thing so no jealousy.as I do a daily scrub.

In addition they can do a daily fine on the property (generally $100-200/day) which they usually cap out at $10k but lately they've been going the MOV route.   

I think I have a little bit of a unique angle to extend my rental season.
