Valid point, thanks!

@Lucas Carl All valid and good points, just curious of the economics of scale part.

As a Direct Lender, (meaning the actual lender underwriting the loan and not a mortgage broker), DSCR program looks for good credit payment history, good credit scores, and validates your available accessible Cash for the Down Payment. 

I know those facts, so I was hoping to find some of those investors to validate this information. 

I hope pondering my points provides items to consider and that they are at least evaluated for likely validity for future acquisitions.good luck and learn as much as you can with this purchase   

Hi Lisa, As an investor, I have worked with all types of realtors, but for investment property I would say that you have to have an experienced realtor in investment properties or you have to have enough experience for the deal to work with.Experienced Realtor will help you with the contract (which in many cases are not simple), but most importantly with spotting issues in the property that could cost you thousands.Your concern is valid so it is important to sign a Buyer Representation Agreement, in which case the realtor has to work for you over his/her own interest (or you can sue him).The idea is not to sue them, but to make sure you trust them enough to work with them. 

The carryback note is not considered a valid asset to receive in an exchange.

If anything I would say BH is an insurance company, but they do obviously have the real estate piece, oil and gas, apple, some big Japanese compioes, building suppliers like ACME brick, BNSF railroad, and I'm sure a lot of other pieces and parts.   

Especially when there’s a valid explanation.

When gas lines were two hours looong and you weren't allowed in that line except every other day.
