Do you have an example of something that doesn’t conform to the IRS standards? 

If a condo unit owner had a water leak that damaged my unit how do I take them to court?

When we opened it, we got the EIN and notice from the IRS about filing form 1065, which is standard.

I bought a condo at the auction that has water damage and mold in excess of 15k to repair.

3/5/2019Sherelle – thanks for the post / questions and outline Fyi – there are some conventional loan programs that allow a 3% down payment ….I would recommend using this program versus a fha loan program if possible …this is because with a FHA loan the monthly mortgage insurance remains with the loan permanently and with a conventional loan – you should be able to eliminate the mortgage insurance in the future ……Also – if you use a FHA loan for the first home - using a FHA again for next property might be an issue …..you allude to this in your question #2Regarding cash flow analysis ….other items to factor in : utilities / property homeowners insurance ( this will be a little higher when you live in home and should decrease a bit once you convert it to a rental policy / are there any deferred maintenance issues on the house ( roof / furnace / water heater / foundation are the bigger tickets items to watch Definitely get pre approved so you know for certain what you can afford and also so you can begin becoming more familiar with the numbers …we can assist with this if you want - contact us Thanks and I hope this helps Dave Skow 

Auction.com has an estimated ARV of $600k, but we are taking that number with a huge grain of salt since any comps close by seem to be more around mid 500s.A quick plus delta of the situation as we see it:+ great location (corner lot, water front on a small lake, good neighborhood with very nice neighboring properties, close to main road).+ REO with a motivated bank seller (assuming they will be dropping their minimum each time they put it up for auction?)

If I live on the first floor and I have water damage from a shower drain pipe in the condo unit above me who is responsible the unit owner above or the HOA?

My main concern is that I don't know the weather/water patterns there well enough to know if the issues called out on the report are super worrisome and will need to be repaired ASAP or not.Thank you all in advance!

My plat was built in the 70s and my lot of land was sold to a contractor in 1986 and they finished my house in 1989 but on 2acres instead of the standard .48 acres in my neighborhood.

.$65Anticipating some capex for a new driveway and repairing the crawlspace which had standing water in it.Seems like a good deal otherwise.
