She suggests I'd best suited for commercial, but I need to cut my teeth in residential first.Regards, Richard

He has no right or whatsoever to say "I want..".

In essence, there are places which experienced little or no appreciation whatsoever (despite nominally having "higher" prices) and places in the U.S. which have experienced  massive appreciation due to the usual suspects of causes: population movement (generally west and south), more restrictive building regulations, topographical features, climate, economic development, etc.   

I have been under contract on 2-3 more deals since then that fell through, but I am still looking aggressively.Given the competitiveness and high price point of the California markets near me, I knew I wanted to invest elsewhere to cut my teeth and likely earn a better return. 

Do people think extracting oil from other countries that have no standards whatsoever is less harmful?

I had no reserves whatsoever to fix these rentals.

BUT....... during that time I have only had ONE, yes count that ONE, other manager call me to check on a previous rental reference for an applicant.So since I basically get nobody at all, ever, whatsoever, calling to check references I am forced to assume that the VAST MAJORITY of landlords don't ever make the phone calls.Like I said, I sure as hell process ALL of my applicants.

Prohibited transaction.The financing part of this is irrelevant.The father's IRA cannot do any transaction whatsoever with the son.

The grantor makes NO GUARANTEE WHATSOEVER about any rights in the property.

Now my wife and I are looking for our first investment property to cut our teeth on.
