Post: Owner Financing Question

Is it possible to offer owner financing on a property when I still owe money to the bank on it?

Do these things:

a) Put a magnet on your car that says "I Buy Houses"

b) Tell everybody you meet "I Buy Houses" and also tell them you pay $500 for any deal they refer to you (which you end up closing)

c) Find a couple of good (emphasis) RE agents who actually know REI and call them every 2 weeks.

These actions will get you more opportunities than any website.

What do you want to do? Do you want to be a landlord or do you want to be a hands off type of investor?

Also, FYI....I heard from a CPA that often if keeping up with receipts is tedious, a copy of the check written for expenses will suffice.

Doing my taxes....last minute no less. I'm a single member LLC so I'm treated like a sole proprietor per the IRS. I picked up two rehabs at the end of last year and I finished them in 2009. So, I'm showing expenses with no income on these properties for 2008. I'm being truthful, but does this invite an audit?

Post: Tenant lost keys

Opinions are welcome....

A tenant has called twice now in 1 month saying they were locked out of their apartment. I drove the 30 mins from my house to let her in the first time, but this last time I told her "sorry...can't do it until tomorrow morning". I don't like this tenant and she is late paying rent each month.....

Was this a good decision to not drop everything and go let her in?
