There isn't space to lock the bike on the property and her bike is a cruiser that is large. 

There is a lower ratio program of .80% in cases of low rents but the rates are higher usually in the 8.50 to 9.50% Be careful of your prepayment penalties as well it can lock you into a high rate or cost you money if you plan on refinancing in 12-24 months.If you ever have any specific quetions feel free to reach out I am always happy to help and talk REI!

I'm finally looking to get out of analysis paralysis and pull the trigger on my REI journey and i want to start out as a co-host on AirBNB to learn the ropes from someone more experienced, learn enough to where I feel comfortable to host my own and earn a few dollars in the process.The only issue I have is that I have no experience as a co-host and per AirBNB's standard, i currently do not qualify as a Co-Host.

Open to loans but only if we net 10k a month after mortgage payments With 2 million dollars you could solely fund one of our ground up development deals at 15% down on a 50,000 sq ft building which we put about 70 units in on non recourse debt for land we already have locked up and entitled. don't buy and hold, don't listen to any of the 20 agents from columbus here who try to sell deals that are garbage. if buy and hold was the answer you'd see massive capital pools in columbus buying deals up. that was the model in 2014. all of the value creation is from ground up development partnerships. we can build with land cost below 65% of finished asset value on lease up and you can have no risk into the deal. the deal I'm talking about is a 12 story deal that we are working on. in columbus you can get downtown land for $400k that is about 0.22 acres right now with unlimited height and unlimited floor area ratios and build massive equity from joint partnerships.

So if your debt (consumer or mortgage) is above an 8%, then feel free to pay it down to lock in that return.

The renovation will trigger upgrades to the systems. 

When you buy, get a fixed rate locked in for long term.

I am still probably a year or two away from getting this fully started but rather know as soon as possible the amount of ways I can get screwed with my pants on before I actually pull the trigger. lol

Unfortunately I am actually allergic to dogs and they really trigger my asthma.
