I brought a cashier's check (I think for 5K) for the down payment and signed all documents right there.

Hello,Every deal is different and you have to "run the numbers" on it, but it does help to know where to start looking.I spend time on Zillow and have seen evidence of flippers targeting neighborhoods west of the Gwynns Falls: Check out the sale of 303 Gwynn Ave for $155K.

Will check out the others - thanks for the info.

I typically get 3-5 years financials and have my CPA review them as well, as a reality check.

Check out their site, pretty self explanatory. 

Check out Red Bell and Realquest.

Screening - run credit - background checks?

This will give the buyer time to order an appraisal, have prelim title work done, building inspection, survey (if needed), check with the city/county to make sure it can be used for their business, etc...

I checked it out and found it during the inspection. 

Yesterday we checked out rental that seems really great.
