Tenant has over 30 cars on property.

One of my property’s is in a small rural area in WA. My lot has a trailer which I rent out to a couple and a fence down the middle of he lot to have an RV hook up. The tenant in the RV mentioned that he was looking for a place with a big garage (both rentals have large garages) and that he has retired from his car bodywork/ mechanic shop and was looking for a place to be able to bring some of his fixer uppers and work on.

Before he moved in he asked that he could have a couple cars to work on, we talked about how many and I believe we said 10. I just found out that he has over 30 cars on the property and now my property manager wants to raise the rent but $600.

My concern is the possible damage it could do to the yard or what it would cost if he ever just decides to pack up and leave without taking them with him . I haven’t heard anything negative from the neighbors (my other tenant and someone who loves behind the lot). They told me he has a lot of cars but he seems like a friendly guy when I spoke with them on the phone before. Up until the lease renewal I wouldn’t have known he has had so many.

What are your thoughts on this? Any suggestions or concerns I should should bring up to my property manager? I don’t live in the state anymore so I can’t go see for myself and just have photos.

Aren't comps/CMAs useless with buyer credits at close happening now?

I'm looking into buying a new construction townhouse in my HCOL US city. I'm seeing builders offering interest rate buydowns worth $20k-$60k on $800k homes (rather than just lowering prices) in order to keep their comps high for their other units, now that buyer demand has been declining. I asked my agent about these, and he said these buydowns aren't even the full story: buyers can write all kinds of other credits into an offer, like their closing costs, prepaid sewer fees, etc. Apparently cash buyers can just write in a "buyer credit at close" for any amount in their offer. So a new townhouse that appeared to sell for $800k in the MLS might have actually been a cash offer with a $100k+ buyer credit at close, meaning the buyer only spent $700k or less in total, but to the rest of the world they can only see the $800k! So that made me realize I can't trust comps/CMAs for other new construction townhouses. The sales prices could be way lower than they appear...

Making offers on houses not listed for sale.

I want to buy a home for retirement. I am looking at lots of options, mostly focusing on the locations that appeal to me. I see lots of Zillow estimates of homes that look like great deals to me. Are these estimates accurate, even though similar houses in the same area that are for sale are usually priced much higher? If so, is it realistic for me to try to make offers to owners that do not have their homes listed? Would a realtor even consider helping me do this? Or, do these values indicate that the houses listed for sale are overpriced, and I should just lowball until someone accepts? Are houses today tending to sell far below list prices, or ??? submitted by /u/chewybrian [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1o4mcon/making_offers_on_houses_not_listed_for_sale/

Co-signing as non-primary resident - effect on size of required downpayment & first time home buyer status?

Contemplating co-signing on a house with my mom and splitting the mortgage payment. I currently have a significantly higher income and much better credit than her. I'm looking at potential home costs and related downpayments but have difficulty using some of the online estimators. From my perspective, this would be somewhat of an investment purchase (I intend to stay in my current location in a different state and contribute to the mortgage), however, for my mom, this would be a primary residence. For purposes of the downpayment size and the type of mortgage arrangement, would it be an investment property or a primary residence? Many thanks for any help. submitted by /u/piercalicious [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/km4hvl/cosigning_as_nonprimary_resident_effect_on_size/
