I’m closing on my second deal, a duplex that’s going to take about 9-12 months to comeplete (I’m doing the work with some sub contractors but mostly myself) at this point after that is done, I will be out of money, even before it’s finished I’ll have to raise some capital to finish it, but it should cash flow conservatively $600 a month.

I am under contract for a 3 family home w a very unique set up. 2- 1 bedroom apartments and 3 and 4th duplex which has 5 bedrooms but only 1 bathroom this home is 8 min from Brown University in RI and 10 min from Johnson Wales. (6miles)Do u think its close enough to attract college students especially the duplex? 

The fact that you  already had two closings in your 1st four months is amazing.

Closing was pushed back to end of April so I don’t have the keys yet.

@Mary Parsek you are pretty close with this forum but I would suggest posting this in the "Mortgage Notes" forums.  

Quote from @Garrett Brown: Hey @Josh Ball , this is basically what I do on the most successful properties I have ever had. www.cameronranchglamping.com It mainly depends on a few things.How close are you to a metro hub/ activities?

A $45 application fee will apply.Income: Verified monthly income must be at least three times the rent (minimum $4,200 combined).Credit Score: A credit score of 650 or higher is required.Eviction History: No prior evictions are permitted.Should I lower it to a credit score of 600 and 2.5 times the rent? 

A lot of 'off-grid' places are not, which will lower their value and resale ability.Also, you are decreasing your potential market by choosing a venture like this..not everyone will find composting toilets as cool as you and I might.Having said that, I think it could be a great find, if it check all the the boxes.

And if they work in Hollywood, they probably want to be close to where things are happening. 

Pay off the highest interest debts or consolidate into a lower interest rate.
