Thanks! Any suggestion for out of state investors who can't attend in person? Also, what is the situation when a property is in a historic district? I've heard that the county might b able to void the taxes on 100% for a certain amount of years if you rehabbed historic home? If true, what are the guidelines and how to do this process remotely?

Hello BPers,

Please advise how to how to appeal property tax increase in Flordia while leaving out of a state of Flordia? I read about VAB but seems it only in-person?

@Brandon Turner You Rock !

It seems that credit can't exceed the closing cost. Anything more than that has to stay in an escrow account and they will pay the vendors which you need to line up before closing. Anyone, that know something different?

Hello BP colleagues,

What are the ways to receive credit at closing? I am in escrow on a duplex, conventional loan, and credit have requested is above the closing cost amount (with about 20k more). I do not want a price reduction, as the negotiated price will appraise, but rather receive a credit at closing which will use towards a few improvements. 

What are the ways to receive the credit in escrow and outside of escrow? If outside of escrow, how to legally protect myself?

Best,

K

Take GC with you - best estimate is estimate from the person who will actually do the work
