It seems like there are several big engagers I can think of off the top of my head, then there's a consistent middle of the pack (I recognize their names) - these are all quality posters Then there is a slew of people who ask one question, have a few posts and never engage again.

If there goal is to grow at a rapid pace, then 3rd party is the way to go.

But some of us got caught in the middle of the Domestic violence issues properties face, vandalism, and now more increasingly Drug addiction.

The market out paced my salary even when it doubled!

There are lenders that will go down to 620 for your middle mortgage FICO credit score with more money down and lenders who will do 15% down for a single family with 720 and above with a 1.2 DSCR ratio (more on that below).

Literally in the middle area lol.

, my question is do you think an SF home located about 20 minutes from the RTP / RDU area appreciation will continue at a typical annualized 3% pace, and do you think rent will continue to increase OR do you think the influx of housing over time will keep home prices flat, and rent flat with it?

Good strong rents and hard working middle class tenants over here broadly speaking and appreciation has been my friend the last few years.

There are DSCR loan options where you can cash out up to 80% if you and the property meet certain criteria: if you have a middle mortgage FICO score of 740 and above you can do a 80% cash out refinance if 1-4 units (so single family rental or 2-4 units).

I am in the middle of buying two rental properties in AL with a turnkey provider.
