My fiance bought the house that we live in, so through that I have a mild understanding of the home buying process.  

In the process of selling an investment property on the west coast and moving those dollars to AL.  

You will learn so much in the process and find great deals that will be very evident to you.

@James Masotti give me a call and I can talk to you about the process. 

As for bad tenants, if they pay the rent you just deal with it and see if there's a way to get them out.If they don't pay rent, you go through with the eviction process and just deal with all the hurdles of the LTB.If you can hold the property for 6-12 months without any rent and have a bit of cash set away for incidentals, legal, intentional damage etc... it will never be too big of a deal.

PM me and I will send you mine...Also, I recommend Rentler.com for all landlords because they have a great screening process, forms you can use and they will collect your rent automatically for a couple bucks a month (priceless)!

I came across a facebook page on real estate investing & it caught my attention to where i spent 6 hrs watching videos & reading about it . i am in the process of buying my real estate agent license , will that help me ?

Lenders looks at least the 1st mortgage as a gauge to proceed with the process of approving hard money for the down payment on the right deal without experience.

I'm a commercial driver so the commute is not a concern for me I'm used to it but lender has concerns about it and will not process the loan until I transfer.
