Giving the circumstances ... just going against the grain right now.

Hey @Jared Comeau,Banks and agencies will definitely want to dig into the circumstances of the bankruptcy.

Yes -the closing costs would be higher except I think our credit union has lower costs and I will look into it.

But if there were extenuating circumstances, like they had eaten asparagus the night before or something like that, I'd consider it.  

@Drew Davis I did what @Alex Olson described with my first investment property 8 years ago, except a quadplex it was a triplex with a VA loan.  

Which I like as a theoretical concept, except I personally would need another career.

Hope you are all safe and sound within your homes with your families during this crazy time, but while i got you looking on BP Forums i was hoping to get some feedback from buyers in the DFW metroplex specifically on certain criteria that you look for when investing in homes, i was planning on networking with some fellow investors at our next REI gathering but unfortunately given the circumstance i figured it'd be a while before i could do that soooo i jumped on the next best thing.. 

Hi all,Hope everyone is doing well under the circumstances.

I used the BRRR method for all of them except the first one.

The great recession in 08/09 with free falling real estate prices was definitely an exception.
