Quote from @Paul Lucenti: It depends what you're looking for.

It is hard to beat the appreciation, cashflow, tax benefit and the hedge it provides against inflation. 

Depends on the actual deal I have seen 85/15 rarely 90/10 but keep in mind your primary home will have a second lien on it typically if your LTV is over 75%. 

I know conventional lending could become an issue depending on the condition of the property.

Depending on how it is done and what guarantees the government offers and requires of the released entities, interest rates could move slightly higher.

Hi Amanda,If they are trouble tenant then you should probably provide them whatever the notice period is in the current lease and just have them move out. 

Instead of paying down someone else’s mortgage, you’re setting yourself up for bigger and better deals down the road.Your first deal is going to depend on a lot of factors—how important is location?

With the amount of support they provide I am not against settling for an 8/10 deal.

Is it provided by PreREO and who is the loss payee?
