The way I'm applying these principles to real estate investing is two fold.  

To spite my almost-ex-wife at the time I sold it to the tenants for $35K in folding-money cash and wrote the paperwork as a gift to the couple and their two children.I'm not sure what my ROI was but I was happy with it.

Before moving it, have you looked at redesigning the kitchen area,, minor adjustments of placing appliances may help and enclose the laundry area with bi-fold doors will sometimes do wonders.

And I rarely ask for due diligence in my typical REO offers.That said, the reason I like to have due diligence after bank approval is two-fold:1.

The tenant or buyer walks and the investors gets it in the end.The only no risk deal would be that they sell it and guarantee rents, but what if they fold?

Places like these will fold if their business declines 25%.

My question to the BP community is really three-fold:1.

As a two fold approach I'd like to go with a bank that also works well with real estate investors, that way I can begin to build a relationship with said lender.Which brings me to my question: What local banks / credit unions do you work with for your REI ventures and utilize for your banking solutions in the KC area (personal and business alike)?

The challenge is two-fold - how to more efficiently acquire, maintain, and manage the investment; and then how to get maximum returns on that investment.
