IDK pets can certainly do damage but with a decent long term tenant I tend to want to preserve the relationship.

Hi Angelica,Just adding my own 2 cents worth here from a deal I did not too long ago:I bought a prop off Auction.com about 2 years ago.

Sub2 is a risky strategy for a long term buy and hold as the longer the deal structure stays in place, the higher the chance that issues will arise (like issues with the loan servicer, insurance, seller filing for bankruptcy, seller dying, seller realizing their DTI ratio and ability to buy their next property is negatively effected and becoming upset about it like in your case, due on sale clause being called, etc.).

Areas like Downtown, Summerville, and West Augusta are particularly desirable due to their proximity to amenities, universities, and employment centers.In terms of your preferred strategies, it would be helpful to know what type of lending you plan to use.

Gaining a risk-free property, with a long-term resident there to pay down your fees, etc, with a property management company in place to hold your hand along the way and making sure your property is kept up with. 

These small conveniences can save you time and money in the long run.For rent collection, you can try Rent.app, which is easy for tenants to use and keeps everything streamlined.

Hi Robert,Given you are looking to buy another rental (long term), a cash out refinance on the existing property would be a good play here.

REIA is a generic term.

You are basically asking how to wholesale, but that's too long of a question to answer.

Out of pocket, it is at least $1000 a year but I think it is worth it in the long run.
