Key item for me is that both units are in move-in condition as I don't have the time or experience to renovate, so I'm willing to pay a premium for that (this property will be owner-occupied by necessity, I am negotiating to buy another property at the same time).The exterior issues are mainly cosmetic and repairs can be put off until next year, but there is some rot on the wood porch.I understand that an appraiser is not an inspector and vice-versa.I paid to have an appraiser give me a report on the property.

You didn't state your age, but many times when there's one person much older they take on the role of parent or vice versa, so might not be a good idea.

There's only one place I know of where you can make some very good money, enough to afford $1000-1500/month mortgage/rent from working in the Hospitality Industry and that's not really in management, but a front of the house position as a Strip Bartender, PIT Cocktail Jockey, Craps or 21 Dealer, Valet Parker, Showroom Waiter, Captain, [Maitre D or course] or Bellman in Vegas or Reno to some degree.

But earlier payments have more interest and less principle and later ones are vice versa.

This way the seller isn't stuck in a junk deal with a non-performing buyer or one who is weak but the assign buyer is strong or vice-versa.

If he doesn't like one, he will pass it to you and vice versa.

You should really be telling us not vice versa.

In other words they take on a lot of buyers in a seller's market or vice versa.

:)I think federal law trumps state law if it is more stringent in favor of the bonafide tenant and vice versa.

Until that person is discovered, I am looking for advice on keeping rental homes in owner’s name vice an LLC or living trust, tax strategies, owner visiting rental home that is managed by a property owner, dealing/negotiating with property managers, expanding into commercial real estate, using VA loans, and traditional and non-traditional financing.
