I want to make the best decision while honoring my agreements and maintaining professional integrity in this deal.

A nice 3 bed 1 bath around 1200 sq ft is easy to buy, cost very little to maintain, rents easy, and is easy to sell to another investor or a homeowner.

Even then, you can expect they won't be able to maintain the home to the same level you did while living in it.

Wife and I both have an 800 credit score and plenty of income with a 19% DTI ratio. 2) Do you recommend that as a first timer I actually do go with a higher down payment product as I learn?

We help our clients:1) Find a fixer-upper to buy2) We get bids3) Negotiate a Scope Of Work with the owner using "Maintain to the Neighborhood" to avoid over-improving, but understanding we will have to pass city Rental Inspection to avoid being a slumlord.4) Provide multiple jobsite videos to show progress and document WHAT was done and the QUALITY.5) Handle passing city Rental Inspection6) Find a tenant with a Replacement Guarantee per Class7) Assist with refinance, so client can repeatSo, why you looking OOS again?

Fire victims maintain their property tax basis by law after rebuild.not sure what any of the things you mentioned trumps return.  

Always maintained, and in great condition.

Hi Rae,I know programs for 10% down for first timers but 0% down would be pretty difficult.

It's about having an income that will enable you to maintain your current standard of living for life.

@Sanjeev Advani I’m not saying they’re all like this but since Circle K bought 3 local convenience stores they have never been able to staff them properly or maintain employees.
