Don’t go shopping for a loan.  

The Short Term Shop has some coaching programs, I believe.

We live on the west side of town and a lot of the major shopping is on the east side, so we naturally drive by several times a week.  

When my employer closed up shop I was probably the only person that didn’t care.

Something tucked in the corner of a shopping center, or outside of an anchored center in going to be harder to fill, just like rentals in a crap area, that hasn't been redone in 15 years is harder to fill. 

If you are shopping around a deal and it is not in contract, other investors, brokers, etc. may not take you serious. 

REPS hours.4) Getting ready to rent the property pre-close but post-contract:  Understanding HOA rules and incorporating them into proforma lease agreements; preparing and posting rental advertisements; shopping for, selecting, and purchasing furnishings to equip the house to be put on the rental market.  

However, when there is no such specific property referred, how to determine the maximum qualify amount, so I can start shopping around? 

I had a 75% LTV loan on a $193k appraisal, so we were over that $100k mark.That said, have you shopped this a bit?

Nice view, walking distance to bus, schools, shopping.
