So, if I am receiving regular rental income, payroll deposit, and such that can be sourced, it can be immediately used and does not require the 60 day period, correct?

However I would hate for them to do this to their current landlord, who did not even call us for a previous landlord reference.

That way you still make a regular income but don't have to be a landlord.

@Jimmy RojasReturns in real estate have historically matched the stock market - so use that as a reference pointJust like investing in some stocks builds wealth faster - so does real estate and vice versa

@Mikey C. what "inspection" are you referring to?

As for our local rentals in Illinois, we still use the old-school regular key for each unit too.Thank you everyone for your suggestions.

Hey Vonetta,There's a really good property management company that a lot of my clients have worked with that I could refer over to you.

You compromised your lendability by taking write-offs to show you didn't make much so in a bank's eyes, you didn't make much.Any alternatives that are come here (sub to, seller finance) aren't realistic for a regular home buyer.

I learned that I enjoy investing in value-add multifamily which has a great mix of regular cashflow, but also upside upon the exit.

They refer to it as their "bid room".Good luck.
