We should see a continued rise in inventories going into next year, which is normal for this time of year.

Many banks securitize their loans (bundle them together) and sell the loans to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, while continuing to service the loans, that is collect your payment.

Talk to residents, potential buyers and renters to see what their thoughts are regarding home values in the areas. 

Again, this isn't saying this guy is, I'm saying generally.My recommendation: Contact the city about section 8 programs, read here in the forums, listen to podcasts, then talk to property managers.

When you do that, you can get better pricing and leaves less room for error.The best advice is to push forward as quick as possible, fail forward, and always continue to introspect on what you would do differently and then ACTUALLY go back and implement that change (easier to say than do).

I looked at about half of those resources and realized that you had no clue what you were talking about.

I was talking to a RE friend.He said it's a bad time to buy* rates are high* homes are expensive in most marketsLooking to hear some counterpoints. 

I ASSUME you’re talking $400+ in extra expenses for providing water, power, sewer, gas, internet, communal area cleaning, and exterior maintenance.

At this point, instead of continuing to pay the interest loan payments on properties that we will never be able to financially finish since the rehab loans will not cover the actual cost of the rehab, I wanted to know the ramifications of returning the properties to the loan servicer, deed in lieu.

Talk to someone more knowledgeable about what your trying to do.
