If you get a quality system that you can configure to record on motion or all the time with high quality cameras that you will never have to change batteries on I think you will be much happier.My digital watchdog cameras cost between $250 and $500.

They may also be angry, in denial, confused, apathetic or all four!

:)I realize that some of these questions may seem basic to many of you and I am fine with constructive criticism of any or all of the above mentioned.

Some lenders have overlays and will not go up to these maximums in some or all cases.

If the tenant is taking most or all of that risk, the the less risk you have to incur.

Ok, I'll look into getting a CPA as suggested, but do I have to confer with him/her or all the time or just now in the beginning?  

All the numbers flow from that, including figuring out financing where you don't leave too much money behind.If you buy right and rehab and/or increase rents to get a big increase in value, you can increase the value of the property in a short period of time and get a cash out loan on the increased value to recoup most or all of your 20% down.

---Here are 3 questions if anyone can answer any or all of them I will greatly appreciate it: 1) Has anyone successfully negotiated pennies on the dollar settlement on judgement debt clouding a title PRIOR to bidding on a foreclosure? 

The judge will likely wave part or all of the fines or fees if tenant pays back rent, which helps in collection.

Or all of the above?
