But the perception of difficulty is greater than the reality usually.

I contacted ALE solutions on Friday through their housing request form and just resubmitted with a longer term minimum based on what you stated here.

Also, what is the equity in the property?

I know my market didn’t make the list, but 150k is doable here.  

And the most recent are in the 270 range or below and not up to the 1,000 mark. 

The idea of LTR in SFR is in my opinion the best place to start. 

If I read the story correctly, your client did not report rental income.

I have recently been made aware that I get straight to business without really concerning myself for the sellers side of the story and when you have the sellers problems, goals, etc.

Understand that the cost to the investor is only the cash that's out of pocket. 

Also if any NJ agents that are familiar with using these and transitioning out of them can reach out for some advice and education that would be great seeing that I will need an investor Friendly agent over here to help guide me through everything.
