My client has supplemented his retirement income, the buyers have good income but some credit issues that prevented them from traditional financing.

If it's not, get a part time job doing something you are more interested in to supplement your income instead of letting being a realtor drain you and take away your time to spend with your kids.This is a great problem to have and I hope to have it someday!

I work full time and I enjoy my job but see real estate as a way to supplement our income.

If we can generate enough supplemental income to allow her to do so, we would both be happier and feel more secure.

BiggerPockets newest book is about private lending, and in that supplemental materials area, there are copies of forms and worksheets to help you along the way.

@Steven Bialeckihey thanks for all of this info. i might be able to offer some suggestions. i know the HML i work with allows use of other funds like heloc, loans etc. he offers a loan on the side to supplement the down payment. let me know if you want more info.

(Lots of people want to build, but they can't sell their homes, and absolutely no one wants to get a bridge loan anymore.)We got started in short sales to supplement our income while waiting for the home building business to rebound.

What I am wondering, is if I should pay off as much tuition as possible with money earned this summer (along with previous savings) or to let the same loans I have used the previous years disburse and use that money to supplement a real estate investment after I graduate, despite the additional interest I will need to pay (mix of subsidized and unsubsidized at around 6.5%)I have heard mixed opinions on this matter, and I feel that making loan repayment a priority instead of just paying the minimum monthly balance when I gradate will force me to miss out on the wonderful opportunity that is real estate investment.

I am looking to supplement my income and start generating some more cashflow with managing some properties before I have the capital to invest in my own rental properties.Does anyone have a introduction/proposal letter that they send and/or email to prospects?

You will need to supplement your tenants rent long term if you plan on holding on to this property.Your 50K DP is buying a couple of hundred  per month in income leaving far lees to cover expences.
