You may come across pushback with having co-gendered units so as you grow I would suggest leaving room to have unit(s) that are male and female only for those who are more comfortable with living with others from the same gender.

Without a job, no money to invest.These are great suggestions Caleb, much appreciated! 

I stopped paying the 1%+ and my principal finally started to decrease, significantly.My suggestion is that you ask brokers for recommendations that are in the area where you are purchasing your property and keep calling banks and save thousands of dollars you can use to invest for your next purchase.Two things:  Your broker wasn't getting rich on a 1% commission and the 1% you paid to your broker didn't keep your principal from decreasing; it was probably the cash out he got you (and at a higher LTV than the bank would lend you I might add).Banks and brokers each have a place in the lending arena.Stephanie

Stanley - I would suggest that you go have 3-5 conversations with lenders and understand how much they are willing to lend to you given your financial situation.

It's not as simple as the RE gurus preach on social media. 

I would potnetially even suggest they pay a big more than value if they are getting that good of a payment/rate.

Any suggestions will be helpful.
