@Greg Rutkowski and I are trying to fire up a AV REI meetup ... next occurrence planned for 9/20, 7 pm, Starbucks 280 E.

@Phyllis E.  

How do lenders calculate debt to income ratio using the schedule e on tax returns?

I kinda agree with @Larry T. there is presently a storefront vacant building right at the corner of where i leave, the store is rented out but the apartment is vacant and it has been like that for at least 2yrs.You also need to be wary of the location, correct me if i am wrong but buildings were there are apartments and stores are technically in D, E locations which could have a lot of issues. this is based on my drive and stay in Rochester NY.Your located in NYC, i think you could take a day or weekend off to come down here and check the neighborhood out.

You can also look to the new e-broker type businesses.

For me, there is so much to go off of, but I will list a few:1) A passion for real estate - I love learning about it, talking about it, and doing it.2) Be your own boss (B&I, not E&S)3) Financial Freedom for my wife and I (ability to pursue other interests without a need for financial support from those endeavors4) To help others reach goals (if that is financial or otherwise - we love supporting missionaries and hope to be mid-to-long-term missionaries ourselves someday)

If you want to meet in person, I would be happy to share my approach with you. 6) the name of the direct mail game is volume, consistency and quality of list. A
