Then they have to sit there until it's done, to make sure nobody throws their underwear out on the floor, listening to everybody else's kids running around screaming (Our kids are very well-behaved, naturally).

Do not expect them to behave as you would in any given situation.

Both mistakes stemmed from not knowing how different it would be having an open house late October vs. early September.10/22: I started using a google form for anyone interested to respond to a few questions (an idea I learned from this board).

I personally invest in both but Im local and its easier to keep an eye on bad behaving tenants.

Worst case would be having to wait 6months on the one you are closing on.

Treat all your tenants the same, regardless of how they behave, and inspect regularly.

And it's quite possible the interest rates (10-year government bonds) might not behave this time as they did the last--they might keep rising even when the economy slows (up to a point).

You shouldn't be having DTI issues provided you are buying good cashflowing properties, overlays pertaining to the "counting" of rental income is likely what is at play.

You will be having a parent as a guarantor and it is their credit score you check not the student.As far as your credit score requireent is concerned 600 is probably OK for  C class neighbourhood but if your property is B or better 600 is far too low.
