Come closing time lo and behold there they are sticking their hand out for a commission they did not put much effort into earning.

Dev Horn I love this, many newbies use "lingo", I coach selling on terms, and never use "sub2, cfd, lo,wrap" language.For example, "Would you lease option your house?"

In fact, FHA no longer requires that the transaction wait 90 days -- this rule was "temporarily" waived back in 2010 and the waiver has now been extended through 2012.We routinely rehab and resell in fewer than 90 days (for significantly more than 20% above purchase price -- often more than 100% above purchase price); while there are some lenders who still won't do these pre-90 day transactions due to their particular underwriting overlays, there are plenty who now will, and it's certainly not prohibited by FHA at this time.Talk to a couple mortgage brokers who work with regional banks in your area, or even talk to a Wells Fargo LO, and you'll be able to close these loans in fewer than 90 days from purchase.

Wowwwww Ben Russell, I l-o-v-e this very thorough break down on pre-screening tenants.

They already are given their utility allowance on a debit card instead of via direct payments to the utility companies, and lo and behold, none of them magically ever have enough money to pay their utilities, but they have plenty to host parties drink smoke get llegal pets that trash the place far beyond what the security deposit covers...so I can't imagine how much money is getting pissed away in Florida.

Average sold comp, hi/lo etc.Your trying to punch holes in the valuation.

By number of agents, I work with more male Realtors, but by $volume sold$ there is no question that females rule the roost, at least for what crosses my desk (15 Realtors out there for every 1 LO). 

I've lived here since 1987 and actually moved here for the quality of life, and lo and behold it blew up around me!

Find a local LO you can trust, explain your situation fully, and see what options they can offer from there. 

Best and only LO I will work with from here on out.
