You won't FIND a deal in this area but you will meet people doing deals and someone might be willing to be involved in a deal with you if you go through points 1 and 2 first.

@Naresh Yegireddi- This is above my pay grade but I was reading an article in the Wall Street Journal today about how the highest-earning 10% of Americans account for more than 50% of consumer spending. 

I find this hard to believe.

If you decide to sell, you will only have paid a little more in interest over the remaining time that you are in your home.   

I'm less concerned about cashflow and more about building equity currently since I plan to keep my W2 job for years to come. 

Especially in places such as the Hocking Hills and Appalachia in general.

Also, make sure to record every transaction clearly to avoid any issues with the IRS or legal matters.Hope this helps!

If they lie and don't pass your screening, that's their fault.It helps to have your screening criteria written down so you can share it with them.
