I bet he'd love to get in on this!

I think your best bet is to reach out to the commercial broker agencies in your area and ask them about the process.

Dude I BET some dude just winged it, talked about it enough, people believed it and it now is a "thing" on how to do it.I am TELLING you, if 70%-90% of the people call you back pissed off  why you keep sending them mailers, this method SIMPLY IS NOT WORKING!

This frees up your cash to allow you to keep making transactions and allows them to follow the lender guidelines.For rental, there are lenders that will loan 75% Cash Out, and I have heard of lenders offering more locally out west, with a 3 month seasoning requirement for market value.For primary homes, or house hack strategies, a HELOC may be the best bet, as lenders vary, but overall some strategies will offer the best savings of all.

From what I’ve seen, if one wants a long term rental, Redmond and Prineville would be a better bet.

If I buy betting the neighborhood will improve, the increase in revenue is totally dependent on outside factors over which I have no control.  

Best bet, if you’re motivated, search, or have someone knowledgeable search the all the recorded documents, mtg, foreclosure action, etc.  

I met with the structural engineer today and he believes that it just needs a few lally columns and an lvl to fix the problem, other than that it has been fully renovated.

I bet we can meet at Salt Hill Pub.

The cost of living is an interesting one - as in my view it supports a decision to move somewhere, or perhaps a business decision to open a satellite office, etc - however it does not typically 'drive' that decision.One of the key and most important advantages that Iowa has from a labor perspective, and I believe why the DSM market is a great fit for insurance/finance - is that the typical resident knows central Iowa and is 'content' - this doesn't mean that they are settling, as I do believe the DSM market is a 'special' place once you get to know it - however I'd put a strong bet as compared to other metros that if you polled people, the question 'Do you see yourself moving in the next few decades or do you ever yearn to move?'
