I am still rather new in the investing world, but I know with enough base knowledge and liquid capital of course, I'd be willing to pursue it for sure.

"Good about deductions" sounds a lot like "doesn't make enough money to be a homeowner", so he should keep renting from someone else, and you should do what you're going to do with the money and wisdom you earned.Of course I don't know your son, but I think this is too dicey and you are too close to the situation.  

They said they will not take rent into consideration and declined me because they are using the mortgage of that new loan, my current mortgage and HELOC payment off of just my income now, which is dumb because of course I can’t qualify.  

@Aristotle KumpisWe do 10+ Flips/BRRRRs annually and fund with Hard Money and Private Money.Hard Money will fund 90% of the purchase price and 100% of the rehab on a draw schedule.Our Private investors will fund the remaining 10% of the purchase price, the first portion of the rehab (to be drawn later from the HML), and the holding costs.Of course, with private lenders, you must give up equity or a return on the debt.

Of course!

Of course.

Of course you can get discounts for having certain items FULLY updated, like plumbing.  

Of course, growing has inherent risks involved.
