I got my real estate license in 2015, bought another 3 family with my mother as a co-borrower, 2016 I bought a 4 family with my brother as the co-borower, picked up a single family subject to the existing financing, and so far this year I have picked up a 3 family and a 4 family using hard money, and have another 2 family UAG with hard-money as well.The story continues, as this year I am selling my first 2 investment properties and rolling them into (2) 6 family buildings to improve cashflow and utilize some of the equity build up.I guess I got carried away, but moral of the story is that it became much easier to buy a multi, once I got rid of the single..Cheers to your success!

However, does it make sense for me to be a co-borrower since my DTI is likely higher based on primary mortgage, credit card debt, car note and now a HELOC (that has not been used)?

He gave me bad news a few times, but he gave me solutions like, "you need lower debt" or "can you find a co-signer", etc. 

I closed on a co-op in Queens just a couple of weeks ago actually and the seller paid the commission on that one too.

They will pay you the policy limit for a total loss and DO NOT enforce a co-insurance clause or depreciation to reduce the settlement.Insurance companies reduce their claim payments to you by applying a deductible, applying depreciation, and enforcing a co-insurance clause.

Love David as a co-host - but what happened to Josh?

i have a co-worker who's in pisessikn of a property after a relative passed away.

If you got a co-signer (parents), and 3.5% down, you might have a chance for a decent property.

They do not look like party people, and they have a co-op program so they will have income as well as support from family back homeHas anyone ever had experience renting to international students?

I built my credit up by being a co-signer for a leased car with my mom while I was in college.
