I would recommend no more than 4 for the first, just for the ease of financing and getting the best terms until you're more experienced in this area. 

I know the mortgage payment would not be no more than double that, and i would make near 3k per month in just rent from the current renters(including the owners rent). 

Local = no more than 30-minute drive from your home base.Yes, I mean going out and looking at the neighborhood, the property, the surrounding amenities, etc. 

No more math games from there on out.

You should decide what you want to do based off your financial and time situation and just do the one thing (possibly 2) but really no more than that. 

No more, no less. 

They also can provide an opinion on it - so yes they could blast you just like people blast Amazon or any other businessThe only thing that the agreement stated was payment would be due no more than 5 days after the closing of the property or the contract between us and the seller was cancelled. 

Haha, my wife will spend right up to her means but no more.

There’s just no more efficient way to do it. 

I felt kind of weak until the illegal occupant stepped up his outbursts and threats to the point where he made me strong again; there's no more grey area ("oh, maybe I should give him another chance; maybe I should spend more time looking for reasons to accept his application..."); he has shown his hand, and I'm rising up tough.I'm back in the saddle, and nothing's gonna stop this cowgirl!
