I did have an inspection before purchase, and to be honest the inspectors never turned on the furnace to check if it was working, and I moved forward anyway.

I’ve been seeing some real opportunities coming to the Multi Family Market, but the best deals seem to be moving quietly, before they even hit the market.Curious—what’s your approach this time around?

I currently own a townhouse (2400 sqft, 4bd, 3bth) in Edgewater, MD (Annapolis area) that I want to move out of and rent.

My brother who moved to Italy and I looked at this over there for a while. 

We will be moving but I like to owner finance what is left on the mortgage at a higher interest rate because I do not need to pay it off to qualify for our next home. 

From what I’ve gathered, it’s crucial to connect with local agents and attorneys since they often learn about foreclosures before they even hit public records.It also helps to keep an eye out while driving—homes that appear neglected or have been vacant for a long time often signal a pending foreclosure.If you're considering this strategy, be ready to move quickly.

You can qualify for lower down payment loans, and after a year you can move out, keep the same loan terms and convert the unit you vacated into a rental.thank you!

After the inspection, we sent a request with a mortgage contingency date extension (because it was also difficult to schedule this with the agent), a credit for termite treatment and an extension for the closing date which would allow one of the current tenants to move out at the end of this month (when their lease is up) before closing.

Not able to move (at least for a while) due to my job.Looking to use savings that would’ve been for a primary residence down payment to invest in rental property out of state.Would love to make connections, hear thoughts on good markets to look into, strategies to maximize return, etc. 

Only thing that has happened is that remaining tenant is paying both portions so there is no eviction.I'd speak to the remaining tenant and find out what happened and what is the plan moving forward.
