@John:What confuses me a bit is that by the time this deal fell apart, I had already been accepted.

It's funny because people spend a fair amount of time looking for owner financed deals and two fell into your lap, that's awesome!

One of the appointments was promising; however fell through and the other was not....

Best are the Investors that started with next to nothing, just an average person or fell on hard times, than making a boat load in real estate.Also, if you take a look around BP you will find a lot of very successful REI's that post and are active right here.

i kept them on the last house and while they were moving, the rear door fell off and almost hit the mover. it bent the corner of the door and after i installed it, the corner prevents it from locking. now the tenant wants a new storm door since the house would be "secure".i used that door for 2 months without a problem and they moved in and now i have to replace the door. it's ugly without a storm door, but at least it would not break anymore.on this new house i am just listing, there won't be a storm door.so, you keep them?
