And, don't be afraid to shop around for the best rates/loan terms.

try my luck at getting a rehab/conventional type loan and get it above the $30,000 minimum that the bank will finance....and finance $30,000....but I am afraid the appraisal will not get so far over....it may appraise for $35,000.....but I am not sure....and that would still not put me over $30,000 to finance with me putting down 20%.  3.  

Account Closed the last several deals we have done have been working with a good broker who is not afraid to write offers on properties that are off market. 

I'm more afraid of the security aspect of having the unknown come and go constantly.

Don't be afraid to give up equity, to get as many deals as you can. 

Don't be afraid to negotiate!

I'm in a Landlord-friendly state, most tenants respect me, and I document everything to the Nth degree so I'm not afraid to end up in court.

I don't think we know where it will all flush out.. but in the short term it will hurt sales as folks will be afraid of the unknown.

Just remember 2 things if you don’t remember anything else: ensure you manage the cash flow properly so “when” something major happens you won’t sweat it and 2nd don’t be afraid to think and of the work.

Hi guys, I have been purchasing rental properties in TX and GA using conventional mortgage, but I'm thinking at some point in the future I want to purchase my own primary residence, and afraid that if I keep buying rental properties and maxing my leverage using my W2 income I will be too levered to buy my own residence.As someone that recently started out, I use conventional mortgage because of the lower interest rates and my lender doesn't charge me any origination fee (although not a fan of 25% down on small multi).
