@Thomas Giganti In my opinion the first renter will set the tone of the overall nature of the renters involved in the property.

The mortgage banker should have never given you the green light to get the loan started.Its true that in the East Coast folks go from state to state and do commute 1 1/2 to 2 hr.

@Justin LaTorre Hi and welcome out of the BP shadows and to the light of discussions.  

@Erin Silva 10 days is light, you might need more, better do the plans right and specify what you really need done, you would need 2-4 revisions after the first set, which takes 3-5 days to re-do.

It seems that it is actually cheaper to rent than buy at the moment.I hope that we are missing something here and hopefully someone with experience in the Cape Town property market will shed some light on the matter.

I usually pick a color that hides most dirt like light brown.

I suppose I would need to get all the information on how to be a landlord and deal with tenants, things of that nature before I jump into buying.

A commercial lender will lend to a corporation, under commercial loan rates and terms.A residential lender will lend to a natural human person, under residential loan rates and terms.Residential loans are where you find 30 year fixed, and low, interest rates.

I hope that gives some light what wholesalers "ideally" do and benefits of having them in your team.Instead of rehabbers worrying about finding deals especially the new ones they can depend on wholesalers to do the marketing for them.

I would love to use Home Depot or Lowes, however my counter top configuration is a bit more custom in nature and I need an accurate installation.
