Granted once I rent out the unit I leave, after vacancy and everything we would cash flow almost 400(minus heloc as well)All the deals I find.

Because the payment is coming from the tenant, and not the surety bond provider, claims are always processed without a fight.If you are interested in considering a surety bond program, I recommend Obligo.

As echoed by many, the Midwest, specifically Milwaukee continues to be a strong market for cash flow.  

It would cash flow nicely.One item to plan for from the beginning is the exit. 

It's not just the taxes, but being able to at-a-glance look at expenses by the month and year, profit and loss calculating automatically, and even cash flow by property and total portfolio by month and year.Thanks for suggesting it!

To me, having one mortgage payment for 2 - 4 houses (basically) always seemed interesting and like something that would give me more bang for my buck. 

The check has been cashed and it's still not settled with me.

Typically, the initial upfront for the rehab is either cash or a high interest loan (hard money or private). 

though; (1) there are tenants in the house on a two year lease (payments are enough to cover mortgage payments), and (2) the Seller wants the option to buy back the property in two years.

If you tried to use the app to look at photos of your ads or look at the "charges" for rent payments and such it was pretty much unreadable and would have several glitches making things overlay on top of each other and such.
