Let's assume your credit is trashed because some one stole your identity six months ago through no fault of your own, and the best you can do is 4.375% on a 25 year fixed.

There are a few other major items but if I listed those someone might steal my idea, and I wouldn't want that.  

Also something to remember is if you do not have a policy written down and you "Pick and Choose" in the eye of the tenant you could be sued for a Fair Housing / Discrimination Lawsuit.. always put it in writing and treat every prospect identical...

So unless you want to steal from the neighbors wifi, or you live next to a McDonalds or Starbucks you'll need a wireless router and connection.

Now, just to bluntly say it, if you get a land owner to take half the value of their land, you are being predatory, you're stealing equity because the value of your service is grossly overstated trying to make 30% off the deal.

Based on previous experience (purchased an identical house across the street from a sheriffs sale) we determine we can pay the back taxes and rehab for under 10k and rent for 650 a month.

But, every time I go to bat-I strike out :(   I'm I the only one, who has no mentor, just enough in the bank to cover bail, if necessary ( Just joking about jail ) and can not get funding or backing, because the stars and cosmos don't line up in my favor, for stealing a kid's trick or treat bag 40 years ago?

Bought a house with VA loan in hometown (Ellwood City), market in the area continued to decline due to areas nearby stealing the life out of it IMO (Chippewa Township for example).Due to various factors, made decision to pay down heavily the last year, got out from underwater, and recently sold it on 4/22 and walked away with a small amount of proceeds.I know that with an FHA loan, if you eventually convert it to a conventional loan, you can reapply for another FHA loan.  

Thirdly she told me she has an older couple friend to care for my real estate who lives in the area and is reliable.I dont want to miss out on a deal since everytime I find one someone steals it from me!!

One unit has bedrm and bath closed off due to water damage, it's currently rented as a 1BR but could be repaired and rented out as 2BR probably for an additional $200-300/mo.This seems like a steal, assuming everything checks out with house inspection etc, but what makes me most nervous is I'm not planning to do this full time, I have a job and I can't be driving up there every week to coordinate the repairs and check on them.
