Andy Robison I will basically be staying in there. I have to do training in our Alabama office. But I also travel so 2 to 3 days I will be there some weeks. Not trying to pull a fraud. But the system we live in is a fraud.

Yes my thing is that. If I acquire. I really don't have to rush to get someone into the house. Because I will keep my debt low. I work as an statistician/analysts on farmers financial plan so I guess that's why I have my frugal ways. Financial ratios on in my ball park. The way I see it is better than just going out to buy this vs being in the mall every week.

Nina Gibilaro hi Nina, well I don't have to particular go the section 8 route. Yes, I am familiar with the area. My sister stays like 3 miles from the location and my cousin stay a few blocks. I am harping on the idea of acquiring property of that sort vs buying a brand new car which is depreciable. The house really don't need much work. If any work my family does construction for a living. I am not interested in buying houses that need a major overhaul. If you guys want to see an example of a house. I can send a link of ones that are similar.

Jared R. Yes you are correct. I am going to double check. I will keep working hard and trying to save. I think the house I was looking at will be 3 beds and 1 1/2 baths. If the the mortgage guy will give me a loan for the 26k I can't beat that. Basically, I don't mind driving my little 95 truck around so I can use that money instead of a car note. I am from a rural town in Alabama so they have RD houses that goes for cheap also. Heck they even have mobile homes on section 8.

Jared R. No plan but an idea. I am actually going to write it down. I want to own my first rental this year though. Can find it pretty challenging by myself but I will do it regardless.

Jared R. Oh yes that's the same thing I said. I am trying to get into it also. I just been reading and reading. It's better to have a decent section 8 than a decent renter who you have to chase down.

He was like bring 2600 down with a ten year mortgage with 4% interest. Maybe I can get them to take the stips off since it is a Fannie Mae house. But it is worth a try.
