I've had two tenants call me complaining about bed bugs.

I would like to invest here but there are two large hurdles: Negative cashflow down paymentI feel that Boston is a fantastic city to invest in.....if you are well capitalized.

If there are two borrowers, then of course if a POA is used it would be limited to one borrower...If both borrowers were available and/or decided to attend they would both sign the loan and therefore no POA.2.

I am sure every state is a little different or have nuances but for sure as Greg mentioned materialmen can file a lien and then just wait.. the other thing they can do is a court action for unjust enrichment claims.. those are the two ways Materialmen protect their interest at least out here on the Left coast.. 

House hacking with two children can be tougher than expected because you will always need to take a larger or the largest unit which will reduce your cash flow on the property even more.

However, if you put 20% down and but TWO properties at $100k each and they appreciate to $200k, then you have profited $200k by using the same money!!!

Not sure, from what you're writing, what the benefit to the borrower was in refinancing, but there had to be something; cash out and lower rate are two that come to mind. 

Actually, it is best two talk with two different attorneys.  

Real Estate Professional status and Trade/Business are two completely separate issues. 

Two weeks later, the client locked down a deal that appraised well above their initial projections.If you’re serious about pushing your boundaries..maybe setting your sights on Chicago’s undervalued neighborhoods or San Antonio’s quieter pockets..let’s talk.
