Don i didnt speculate on the cost of rehab because it could range from 5k to 100k on these houses- the low purchase price gives you a little breathing room. the house prices will stay low here for awhile at least until these houses are bought up and even then, hopefully bought by good investors. regardless though the rents are pretty nice and my places are full and positive. i have a 4 family that nets 900/mo..and there are plenty to be had. i want more haha!

I love real estate- it's not like learning, it's like breathing!

He was out of breath and had a cashier's check for the arrearage (plus legal fee's, etc.) to bring his loan current.

You can deny any applicant S-8 or non S-8 for any reason, even bad breath, sloppy clothes etc, as long as you are not discriminating against any as a protected clss as defined by law, like race, religion, sex, age,etc.

I'd say if you brought the issue up and explained that you are fine with it and that you expect to go in and make repairs later, that may allow her to breath easily.

So it takes 6 months to hold your breath for a green light or red light.

Seems many think we will be trading troy's again...LOLMy notes are pretty safe, I have held my breath over the past five years but no problems, knock on wood, but in a really bad recession defaults would/could go up.Bars/lounge are pretty safe if they are not highly leveraged and have low overhead, I'm pretty safe with particapations and the fringe benefits aren't bad.

The Universe is give and take; the body needs to breathe in and breathe out.

------I grew up around real estate, lived breathe it.
