Did they suffer loss of principal during down cycles (or even up cycles for that matter). 

It's probably the best way to get started and learn what it's like to own properties while gaining equity and limiting your living expenses.

Hi Jeff,Sorry for your loss. 

Might be a way to get some cash quicker or maybe get a buyer for the land quicker if you can show them they could pull 1k an acre by having someone come clear cut the parcel after they buy it.The local population seems very limiting too.

In my limited experience with HML, it was something like 2% loan fee and 12% interest on the FULL balance.  

@Tj Collins, The differences between states is limited to reporting of the sales at this time. 

Like @Sarah Miller and @Marcy Albrecht said, you can buy places within the city limits but it's still about location. with that said, i'm always looking out for my end game. one of the issues with buying in certain parts of canton is that when you decide you're done, you may not be able to unload your properties.

Stats are all over the place.I will say that I think ours are more accurate due to the limited number of STRs in our area.

If you are looking to just obtain the 25% redemption rate set by the state for properties that are limited to 6 month redemptions.
