Never had issues with late/missed rent, but I ended up offering cash for keys after about a year because I found there were a lot of headaches unrelated to rent payment - noise, unreasonable maintenance upgrade requests, no respecting communication boundaries, etc.

Is it possible to find financing (via fannie/freddie - or portfolio loans?)

Higher monthly costs via higher insurance, taxes, etc?

I also use most Microsoft applications such as Outlook, MS Office, etc. via my desktop pc. 

I have been looking for people to network with and have not had luck till i found BP via online podcast.  

Just a real quick question,Do you pay any Closing Costs when you use your VA loan to purchase a property ?Thanks 

EXAMPLE:Say a HML says they charge 4 Points with an Interest Rate of 12% If The TOTAL Loan ( Purchase Price + Rehab costs )  =  $80,000How much can I Assume to pay via Points and Interest Rate , given that the Loan is for 5 months ?

If owner, then here is your decision tree:Buy with sub2, and then hold and rent, sell as a lease option, or sell on terms to someone else (you could also list it if you wanted to, but I doubt you'd have success when the owner didn't unless the agent is at fault).If collect one time assignment fee, then here is your decision tree:Put property under contract to buy (with this, you can put the property under contract as sub2 and assign sub2 deal to someone, or assignable contract for deed, or assignable lease option).If you have the option to go either way, and you're local to the area, then there are more advantages to buying with sub2 (or being on the deed via a mortgage wrap, because then you have equitable title and you're not assigning - no one can ever start an unlicensed broker investigation on you if you're on title).So which exit strategy sounds best to you?

Hi @Renata McCulloch & @Cameron Sigurdson to get a good quality note you should be prepared to have more like $50K available, although your IRA can partner with another party to combine funds to take down a note via joint venture.
