I can become a millionaire just by looking at street and sat view and bid online in my underwear. 

However, aside from that, I couldn’t find much information about them, and the only online presence seems to be the wife’s LinkedIn profile (though I’ve never met her in person and am just going off her profile picture on Zillow).After submitting the application through Zillow, we attached our income (two months of pay stubs for each of us from our current jobs), work references, credit and criminal background, rental history, and the contact info for our current landlord (who just so happens to be my fiancé’s father).

Not sure if that is still legal or even translates in today's world of everything online but seemed like a good screening tool to me at the time. 

If not, ride out the 12 months with the hard money lender.People have to make good choices and not over extend themselves just for the sake of buying something they really can't afford or that doesn't make good cash flow.

Consult with competent legal counsel to guide you regardless of your choice here.

Hi all,I am new to the online community but have been listening to bigger pockets podcasts for years.

Quote from @Sarah Kensinger: Quote from @John Underwood: Wouldn't it be cheaper to order everything online and have it shipped to house?

If the community is well-managed and there’s good rental demand, a condo could be a solid choice.

Start small, be patient, and stay connected with local meetups and online investor communities for support.
