So, selling sub-to, the mortgage is brought current and timely payments are made by the new owner helping the original owner's credit CONSIDERABLY!

And lastly, by doing more of a new build focus you can always exit since you built below market in the area.

I use Rentec Direct which does a great job of tracking multiple owners/properties/tenants with the pooled bank accounts.

PHX is growing so rapidly, so knowing which direction that you'd like to focus on will definitely be key.

I’d love to hear your thoughts and insights in the comments below!

I am actually open to hear about other areas in the states, but the general direction is Jacksonville at the moment.I totally agree about the partnership part.That is why I am working with one :) Are you thinking of buying in Jacksonville as well?

It enables us to keep our money working at our current rate, and it puts more money in the hands of the rehabber.

You don't have to answer that, nor can you because it's subjective, but the point I'm trying to make is that they may not view it as a great deal as it currently exists.

However, on my back burner is a direct booking site and I'm leaning toward OwnerRez (once I get through Ski Season).
