@Steve Vaughan  the cute part is the OP thinks they will get LEGAL involved and garnish wages.. good luck on that LOL.. they have lost their money move on.. find better tenants.. landlording is a selected venture.. its fraught with danger.. or it can be very rewareding.. buy properties were you rent to folks who wont do this.

Cute little place, 2 bed 1 bath, 2 car garage -attached. 1,050 sq ft.

I am looking at doing this deal as the builder developer and then holding it.Anyone have any experience with these I understand there is a lot of them in Seattle and probably SF.going back to turn of the century these days.. but with PDX rents that sky rocked ( sure wish you bought her 5 years ago LOL if your buy and holder)... these are looking attractive.The tiny house is cute but the reality of land use for those is pretty tough. 

In the process I'd like to teach and share all information, techniques, strategies with my loved ones so that they can learn more, and become investors too.I'm a Graphic Designer and I love creating  websites, mailers, logos, etc...

In November, good luck.http://www.hoodhomesblog.com/investing/blog/what-t...Hopefully the moderators don't block this post - these are just articles I wrote with information and graphics/tables - I'm not selling a product.

To get a 30 year is closer to 4 percent so for me I go 15 year as the payment is higher but the total loan amount when holding long term and building wealth justifies a 15 yearI would also like to see those graphics without the 3-4 % yearly appreciation as I do not bank on appreciation and with the world turning to a global economy in the past 20 years I do not see consistent appreciation I believe we will have spikes in both directions

Even during the last RE dip those types of properties were rare.When I first started buying (2012) you could get a cute bungalow in Murray Hill for $50k-$60k, easy - not even needing much work!

Hi All, I am a flipper, so I do not know the answer to my daughter's question as to the best way for her to pay her rent.She and 2 roommates rent a cute little home from an elderly couple that is walking distance to their college campus.

I'd avoid getting too cute.

What do you prefer and what is the big pictures... just food for thoughts to consider before taking your decision...But first, the numbers, researches of the market now and compare many deals.... can analyze 8 deals in 2 minutes when you get your numbers straights, ROI, DSCR, cap rate, etc + graphics... for both buy and hold and fix and flips...
