I've been reasonably happy with this so far, since it's made the process fairly passive. 

Also, why stay in OR/WA we have a lot of refugees come to Id for lots of reasons.

I called a good friend of mine, Brian who played minor league baseball and coached at local schools and sports complexes.

I am mainly a buy-and-hold Investor for this reason.

I suspect part of the reason might be because I have a no-alcohol policy for my property, which I understand might draw a lot of people away to some extent.

The positives are from the buyers prospective1- the ability to buy a property with little down payment2- the ability to obtain financing at below market rate3 -not needing to qualify for convention/institutional financing4- not having another debt on your PFS5 - not needing to pay points and other fees to obtain a new mortgage The positives for the seller are 1- can possibly sell a property in which they have negative equity without bringing cash to the closing table2 -expand the pool of potential buyers 3 -possibly obtain a higher price/ quicker sale 4 - can utilize a wrap to potentially earn the “differential” on interest rate 5 -May be able to save the Realtors commissionAll this being established, here’s the BIG question:  Can a subject to transaction be done where both parties are reasonably protected?  

Captivate reasonable benefit for landlord:1.

Does anyone have recommendations for good, reasonably priced countertop installers/fabricators who do work in the north/northwest suburbs of Chicago, specifically around Prospect Heights?

I currently have around 20k cash for a down payment and that is steadily increasing so I want to pull the trigger soon.I'm interested in Fort Wayne for a few reasons:- I have some family in the area (they won't be involved, but have some general knowledge of the area)- Decent schools- Low crime- Airport- Low pricesAny advice or connections are welcome as I am completely new to this.
