Eamon,Any time you face a major issue with a bank/lender and they fail to refund your money or it costs you money and a lost deal due to ignorance or bad lending. 

For example, I am a little concerned about some aspects of the business cycle recovery and a potential for a double-dip so I lean toward the safest part of capital stack which is debt (or low-debt equity).

I have 3 family apartment building and a SFH with 4 garages, 1 shed, and 4 outside designated parking spaces for sale for 1.75 million. 

Bought a 3700 sqr ft duplex in Ashtabula OH, the burbs of Cleveland. 4/1.5 and a 4/2 duplex.

@John Cooper, it sounds like a normal tenant and a difficult landlord.

It sounds like you’re in a great position to get started—$100k saved up and a clear goal are huge advantages.

Through a client and a lot of research and connections through my Personal Training Industry How did you finance this deal?

Hi, I’m highly considering a mixed use building which includes a few residential units and a couple commercial units.

It ensures they did a good job and a thorough job, it also provides evidence of the state the house was in when guests arrived in case there are any guest complaints or guest damage.
