Has appreciated a ton over the past few years, and will continue to do so!

Clear Title. 20+ years as local Real Estate Broker.

We have owned a STR in Florida's panhandle, which has done very well for us for 10 years. 

Hey Jeff without knowing any details everything is what you are able negotiate. but you have to take in account the years interest rate and purchase price and what kind of cash flow.I will say get a mentor if you’re inexperienced these kind of deals can go left if you really have little knowledge when it comes to structure .

I walked to the house and met a man who says he was cleaning out due to the loss of their mother in some few weeks back.The guy told me she is  left with 12 years mortgage on the property to pay the bank.

Many years ago, we worked with a VA on a fixed rate.

We do lending and we ask the question - if you have been doing this for ten years and don't have any money where did it all go? 

Over the years the only place I have lost money is the stock market.

Specifically, the the loan guarantors need to have controlling ownership in at least (i) 3 multifamily properties [with the first acquired at least 2 years ago], or (ii) 1 multifamily property that has been owned for at least the last 5 years. 

in a stick frame market and one of the cheapest markets to build we build with margin at $190 or so a square foot. that will go up over time about 5% or 10% a year to keep up with new build price increases. we are buidling a 3 story walk up and source some of the lowest priced crews.
