When I first started I was leaning forward, heart pounding, and fullf fear.

I really do want to believe her as she is warm and gentle hearted, however I haven't been able to get a hold of anyone at the SSI office to verify her income.

Yes indeedy, but I will try.So take heart newbies, I didn't make 10k or 20k, I made a little and learned alot.GO FOR IT!

My rep would be trashed trying to sell overpriced junk.I wouldn't get many buyer calls as there is no deal to call about.I would rather have 10 listings that I get priced right that I pour my heart and soul into to get sold then 20 listings and 15 are trash and the sellers constantly call and try to blame you.If it's an awesome property and the seller motivation is strong I will list a little higher but with instant reductions built in with a fast time frame.Sometimes the seller just needs that third party data from buyers showing (it's overpriced) before they will believe you.I am very selective about what I take as a listing.Sellers sometimes ask well why didn't you show my property before??

You can borrow to your heart's content without paying a nasty tax called UBIT.

My fall-back career is accounting but my heart is in real estate.

I'd prefer to leverage myself instead of sinking all my reserves into one or two properties and I would especially like to get more doors in my portfolio and get into a complex of 4+My fiance has a 740+ but no documented income since she is a nanny (bless her heart)...

I also strongly recommend staying active on the forums, as it is truly the heart of the BP community.

I only ask because the 221(d)4 program is for rental property only.Obtaining a HUD loan is great considering the terms are unbeatable, but they're not for the faint of heart considering the expense.
