I do not want to miss out on this deal and would love to have more than 1 option for purchase...our first 2 REI's were with this same lender, and it was honestly like pulling teeth each day...literally did not know if we were approved until the day before closing each time, after having to reschedule because they asked for some other document. 

I cut my teeth in real estate in Beaumont.

The housing market is the most interest-rate-sensitive segment of the economy.

If you ask for help don't make us pull teeth to help you.  

I would be very careful working with a professional who plagiarizes.The above sentences that he wrote is stolen directly from something that I wrote.If a professional will plagiarize another professional...can you really trust him with the sensitive information that you are providing him?

As the RE market picked up headed towards 2007/2008 (and the TV shows started coming out) the deals were harder and I had to cut my teeth doing houses that were increasingly more difficult. 

Hello, I'm looking into closing on a fourplex (8bd 4 bath) down in the Mid-south region . I am using an FHA loan and bringing about 6500 (+ 2900 that is in escrow) to closing, I've got about 20k in Seller Concessions,...

I've run the numbers and, even though it's expensive, hard money makes more sense when you can refi into conventional.I will say that after having used it for a while, you start to get sensitive to how much it's costing.

I'm a little sensitive to over investment in a property as well.  

Our property taxes are some of the highest in the country but like others have said, I'm hesitant to cut my teeth on something too far away, at least with the first out of the gate.
