THIS is the subject that has me hesitating to pull the trigger of REI.

Analyze the property based on your criteria and pull the trigger on the winners and flush the losers.

yes, that sounds about right, but in the $100k ARV range I'm finding it tough to find 80% deals.I try to stay in within 10 miles of my house, I avoid any neighborhoods that have a lot of rentals (which is sort of funny), etc.I'm having to look outside of my preferred neighborhoods/school areas (not school districts, but say in Mesquite, there are certain schools that renters prefer, so I really prefer to buy in the areas that qualify for those schools.Erik Drentlaw yes, that's the idea anyway, I haven't actually gotten myself to "pull the trigger" on any of those deals,,I try to follow my business model closely, and this is something that doesn't "fit"

This has happen to me, I was buying MFH and the appraiser said that he should have appraised that house to 20% more but not to trigger any red flags from bank he only came 10% higher.

The cash flow from the three new houses will allow you to buy something else OR it will pay for the house you are currently renting.Pull the trigger and sell, sell, sell!

As soon as you start tapping that promotional cash, they have a hair trigger on cutting your lines down.

If you were going to put 20 units on 2 acres there would have to be another method of dealing with the waste.Also, drilling a well for that much use may trigger some water usage regulation concerning the water table.

If you remove yourself from the deed without the mortgagee's (lender) consent you may trigger the "Due On Sale" clause which essentially will call the entire mortgage due.You need the mortgagee (lender) to remove you from the mortgage formally and then you can remove yourself from the deed after or simultaneously.

The issue is, technically when you transfer the property to LLC it can trigger the DOS clause and the lender could call the mortgage due.

Any option triggers the DOS as well and any lease term of more than three years.
