Before I found BP I actually came across the MREM website and was really impressed with it compared to most real estate websites/technology.

Financing the entire investment (through very creative means, which took me MUCH longer to figure out compared to finding this deal) seems like a no-brainer to me, but I'm scared I got something wrong in the math and this is not as good of a deal as I believe it to be.I'm a newbie, I quit my job in the Oil & Gas industry, enrolled in real estate school, completed it in 3.5 weeks and I take my test 9/4/18.

You would have to explain to them why you will have yearly lump sum payments instead of the more traditional monthly.

Another issue we are having is that there is nothing to compare this facility with. 

Understand the fees involved and calculate the total cost for an entire year of management so you can compare the different managers.

We secured hard money for the pre-approval; however, we'd be interested in comparing terms with other lenders over the next few days.

Considering that a buyer could possibly also negotiate a better price and/or pay cash and avoid the mortgage expenses since the amount is quite low compared to other properties in Washington state, it could be much more lucrative.

It is comparable in square footage but does not have the basement or washer/dryer hook ups, plus one of the bedrooms is upstairs (very narrow stairs and steep ceiling angles in that bedroom).

Given all our student loans, the traditional financing options are not available.

I have a property with a very low initial basis compared to what it will  sell  for.
