For us we had to build 20 homes in Charleston SC with cash or private closely held partners before I could get a bank to loan me a dime even with our long track record and financials.This is why flipping plats is a great gig.. you just tie up the dirt I suspect in that market your cost to create a pre lim plat is not HUGE like other markets could be. and when its ready to go a builder will pay a nice price as it saves them time and they like to buy inventory that can be built on quickly.   

Now that I qualify for their executive program, I will probably go that route.If they pay for it, I would definitely do it because you will learn in the field & at school on their dime.

In terms of returns, I didn't make a single dime in these 9 months (given all things above) but didn't loose any either. 

If each property was the same, I would have 5 times as much cash flow as you would...and I would not have spent a dime "out of pocket"...since at the end of the 10th refi, I get my original $75k back.4 - It isn't that I don't think of the mortgage payment as paying for the house.  

Why not just say 'using eRentPayment.com doesn't cost you a dime.'

But the thing is. you will never see another dime.

If I had a dime for every Denver property that has a crack in the foundation...How far does it go?  

If they don't your the money take 100% control and do not have to mediate or litigate or spend one dime controlling your money or asset..

If you're focused on collecting dimes then sure use IO loans-- sell before year 10, cross your fingers you have no serious maint, and no bad tenants. 

If you buy anything 3-4 beds or less, you are a dime a dozen in the STR market there.
