Gotta work on that reading comprehension, Drew.The second and third sentences of my post are literally:"I lived in Detroit for 5 years before moving out of state, and during that time, I built a strong network of contractors, handymen, and other boots-on-the-ground contacts.

I would appreciate any and all feedback, etc. 

It by no means is an exhaustive search but I also haven’t seen any co-op communities selling for 50% of comparable condos.I also know lenders that have originated loans for the co-ops in Laguna Hills and I was also reading how Fannie Mae buys mortgages issues to co-ops so it sounds like there’s a market for both qualified and non-qualified loans.

And most regret it.I'll make the opposite case: it is VERY hard to screw up when buying i.e. a duplex in good condition in a desirable neighborhood and either self-manages or hire a quality PM to manage.To any new investor who is reading this: In real estate cost and risk have an inverse relationship.

Because it's too much energy to take 2min to read it, instead they just read for a #, and call me to ask everything they just refused to read in looking for my #........ 

Our relationship has terminated.Thanks a lot for your feedback, I was looking for recent reviews on Nomad. 

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

I say "may" because while I have read about this in several places, I have not personally verified this to be true.I usually pay contractors by check the minute the work is finished and approved.  

If I read the story correctly, your client did not report rental income.

Still trying to read more and listen more about it
