A common problem. Just last week I found that my 4/2 SFR was listed as a 3/2 on tax roles. I sent them a feedback form online and they corrected it the next day.

verify that all contractors have a valid and current license. Pay a little more for an established and highly rated electrician, plumber, hvac guy.....Thumbtack or Craigslist may look cheaper, but in the long run, you'll thank me!

Yes, about a year ago and liked it. About to list another one with them.

Makes no sense. Adding the numbers gets a total (320) higher than your ARV....why would you even consider?

You can normally research permits online in the county of question. If you find there is no valid permit, buyer beware! HML won't care, but if you go to sell it down the road, you could run into problems. I would do more DD, talk to the county, and make your decision.

I provide it quarterly. $77 per house for my own peace of mind and a bonus for tenants.
