If a property appears vacant i will try to look in the front window, or even the mail slot. 

Can you refi out of the FHA loan to free that slot up?

But I'm also a fisherman and have traveled the country fishing tournaments and Northwest Arkansas is a great place to be if you love to fish.

thanx s lot Mary...that was very helpful....be sure to inform you about how the deal plays out

I have always been interested in Real Estate since I won a Monopoly Tournament when I was 10 years old (yes I know being good at Monopoly doesn't translate to real life Real Estate!)

I was just in Boerne this past weekend for a soccer tournament and was pretty intrigued by the real estate portfolio there.

If you were to take 1 or more of your existing portfolio and move it to a Sub S and then refinance it with a portfolio lender, you then have opened up the slots of available loans that you can do through Fannie Mae financing.

@Shamus Quirk  many benefits to this you get an owner occ loan and rates compared to non owner occ.you get multiple doors for one of your 4 loan slots instead of buying a SFR.and well I am not all that sophisticated when it comes to fine tuning a P and L..

Then, of course you don't have to wait to get on an agent's schedule to see the property (still just need listing agent's approval of the time slot).I think it's a good idea, in addition to the above, because it keeps you in the RE business.  

The Antelope Valley was my home for a couple years back in the 90's. Lots
