(I don’t do STR deals so my comments are more about long term buy and hold residential RE.)Data by its nature is historical - it’s a lagging indicator. 4 years ago the Southeast was the place to be.

I guess in cases of infidelity that can be a natural mind set.

We can discuss the finances on this purchase (I will be up close to $1m on this after this rehab from 3 sources: 1) purchased below retail 2) value add 3) natural appreciation).  

Or build up enough equity to dump properties and get into multi family or something of that nature.

This is simply predatory in nature full stop.I have sold many of my OREO props on low down ZERO percent financing but they were at market prices and the buyers owned them free and clear in 24 to 36 months that works.. but long term contracts on these homes is not a solution for neighborhood revitalization just the opposite.

I've read many other forum posts explaining how natural appreciation in Scranton is very slow but will cash flow nicely in the right area.

Flipping or rental properties seem like a natural fit for you.

Like Tarik and Christine.. or than merril or any of the others. its a natural progression and the HUGE money is made selling the information. to be fair and balanced like Fox news.. there are always a % of folks that come through these trainings that do quite well and the money they spent forced them to take action.. its just the other 90% who spend the money and well never really do anything..

Hi @Luca Perinuzzi, I work with New Western and we only sell investment properties, so all of our clients are naturally investors.

This guarantor, who may be an individual or another entity, will be responsible for the difference between what is owed to the lender to make them whole and what has been recovered.If the lender makes the loan to an individual (natural person), this person is implicitly the guarantor via the note, and no separate guarantee is needed.
