You want to deal directly with mom and pop homeowner.

The idea that a person is protected against anything that could possibly pop up strikes me as a bit naive.

Breau,Google the words "assignment contract".Tons of stuff pops up and some of it is free.Robin

why is it everytime i come to this site, i get a pop up for a visa charge card?

When the seller's new mortgage company has the title pulled, your affidavit will pop-up and the title company will contact you to find out what interest you have in the property.

Here's a great blog post that I thought everyone should check out: http://www.themortgagereports.com/2008/09/theres-only-an.html It analyzes the number of rate sheets issued per mortgage lenders per day, and the results are pretty eye-popping.

The prices on some (really, most) of these are eye-popping.

Buying a rental with negative cash flow and betting on runaway inflation in the near future really is not the rental business.Yet another thing completely is the mom and pop investor who only wants to own one or two rentals for their retirement.

Otherwise you may have a hard time finding bank financing when your balloon pops.

I haven't met anyone who likes driving all over town looking at properties with "surprises" popping up all over.
