But upon further reading, It looks like if you can prove there is a major safety issue (like a bathroom collapsing from rotten beams or the fact that the house had two fires in 2003-according to the next door neighbor) I might be able to get the ernest money.Numbers on the house.

When you go there, you leave the safety of the public eye and familliar territory.

You never know when some hopped up meth addict will be walking down the street and decide that he needs your money.I carry a Baretta 3032 (32 cal) Tomcat with frangible rounds for added safety in apartment buildings and other close quarters.

That way if my rental rates are off, this buys me time to do some due dilligence and the time for my contractor to look over the property and get me a quote.I have only had to back out of a contract once based on the clause.For a newbie, it may not be a bad idea to have a bit of a safety net.

That equity is a safety cushion so that you don't find yourself in an upside down situation, where you have a mortgage balance that's higher than what the house is worth.

So even if not practically useful, I get the degree/safety net with minimal fuss and am able to get serious with commercial investment that much faster.Accounting has the obvious benefit of me being able to handle my own books.
