Now, if it's investment properties, that's a whole different story, and yes there is ways to confirm not only numbers BUT the quality of that connection. 

@Keith CuddebackIn addition to the methods already mentioned for finding the outstanding loan balance of the primary mortgage, you'll also likely want to determine if there are any other loans/liens attached to the property that the seller will need to cover/pay off before they could transfer title to you.

Keurig's quality has been so bad lately I have fully switched away from them. 

We deliver quality and value, ensuring our homes stand out.

-you will have to find a contractor that can start work reasonably soon after you close, but is also affordable and high quality, and is also going to prioritize your project even though you're far away and not checking in.

We are not appraisers, and we cannot always be correct on ARV, but we only put our best estimate forward, and we do double check the quality of that estimate to make sure it was solidly accurate.

I think I will focus more on airbnb and quality of the interior space with great amenities to maximize rental income.

But... what about the quality of the flooring.I'd recommend maybe getting a sample sent to you before you order a container of them.

Quality absolutely matters in purchase transactions, and cheapest isnt alwasy best.Last point, a good lender will take time to understand your situation and goals and will work with you to identify a strategy and timeline using your available options.

I have 2 long term rentals both at 7.5% interest rates.1. estimated value: $950k, outstanding mortgage of $574k2. estimated value: $900k, outstanding mortgage of $514k#1 cash flows nicely for me at $2500/mo, but #2 leaves me at a $400 loss each month, mainly due to the interest rate.
