Even if it does, there's closing costs to consider.As I said, I have no cash myself, so I'm asking how I can deal with generating cash for closing costs (and a down payment) if it comes to it.The house costs $139000.

The tenant hasn’t been the greatest: late payment with not always paying late fees, multiple complaints from the neighbors, changing phone numbers, ect .

Did you have an agreement in writing signed by both you and the designer regarding payment schedule and purchases?

It is difficult to decipher whose opinions, judgements, and authority are fiduciary.I do believe it does take money to invest in real estate - not necessarily for a down payment but to have sufficient reserves for the investment (which does not seem to be discussed much).

If you’re using a car for business, log your mileage or depreciate the car; whichever method is favorable to you.

Everything I see for the northern VA area and beyond market is just so unattainable; it seems like unless you have a down payment, that is way way way more than 20 percent, there is no way to get any positive cash flow.

Asa result, we are seeking alternative methods for acquiring off-marketproperties.While we havedeveloped a robust system for identifying and pre-qualifying potential landparcels, one of the major hurdles we face is reaching the property owners.

But, for instance, I sent them a notice of rent increase effective February 1 and needed them to confirm that they have accepted the new payment terms through our electronic payment system, and even after repeated notices, they are not responding.

My price range is between 250 - 350k (less would be better, but if more than I would have to be mindful with the interest or down payment %).

This method is a little riskier and requires more work from the Property Manager.
