So when I first became a biggerpocket's member I asked a question in the forums is REI worth a divorce.. my question is now how can I protect my two vacant lots on the lake that i just purchased since August now that it looks like divorce is for sure coming.. for the past couple of weeks she would leave during the day so I could be able to educate myself with watching podcasts or reading books or driving for dollars etc.. she's been gone for the past three days and nights and I barely heard from her. when I said something about why is her stuff still here if  she wasnt going to come home she said that she would come pack it tomorrow.. well I just got done packing it tonight and I'm wondering if there's a way to protect my investments.. the whole marriage i have been the one taking care of both of us and its been horrible every since i got laid off from working in the plants in west texas.. i was trying to hang on till i could atleast get a post nup signed but now it dont look like that is going to happen.. i was trying to make a better life for the both of us and now it looks like my REI days might be done..

@Eric Johnson I’ve had banks that are willing to do 75% even on jumbo non-conforming loans since we would be over the limit but the hang up for them is the credit and same with a couple portfolio lenders - the DSCR is good ( around 1.2) and cap rate is about 6% but the credit score is the hang up.

The biggest rehab projects were redoing the flooring (with sound barrier underlayment) on the whole house, upgrading the addition on the upstairs to match the quality of the rest of the house, hanging drywall & sound board on the ceiling of the basement and upgrading the basement kitchen/bathroom.

Hang around the forums focused on New Orleans.

Most appraisals reflect value based on a couple approaches i.e. income approach/sales approach/cost approach however they will hang their hat on the sales comparison approach 99.9% of the time.  

I had 11 rentals back in 2015 and then I started to hang out with more accredited investors.Do the math here… with 300 dollars per property (2 months of work to buy a turnkey rental) you are going to need 20-40 of these to replace your income.

There are likely easier deals and lower hanging fruit out there to chase.

Contractortalk.com , look in the help wanted section .mostly pros hang out there.

The tree itself is alive and well-ish, but this branch is hanging over my power lines.

To just leave me hanging is surprising when I was so thrilled to get started.
