For a few thousand dollars in rent, it is worth the call.If you don't get satisfaction there, credit card companies are regulated via The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB).

Meanwhile, gross rents of $1,800+ for 3-bedroom single-families is an achievable figure, so it’s possible to generate cash flow if you lever modestly.There’s a bunch of other stuff that’s worth highlighting—the economy, demographics, neighborhoods, new construction, and more.

Given that the property was worth $390K in its current condition, I saw an opportunity to make the numbers work while keeping my upfront costs low.Instead of increasing my cash offer, I negotiated a $25K down payment with the seller carrying the balance for two years through owner financing.

I'll usually eat $100 - $200 worth of touch-up cleaning for a long-term tenant.

I live in a lower-income area, so I figure that the better tenants you will get with a safe house, the ongoing safety the tenants feel, and the lowered risk of a break-in (when occupied or vacant getting ready to lease), and reduced headaches/vacancy/potential damage are worth the marginal up-front cost of having it installed.

They can't print the envelopes cheaply enough to make it worth while, so I would still run the envelope through the printer.

The property is only worth what it is worth - what the seller needs to make is irrelevant.

Then the lender would say that house is worth X% of the loan.
