While the co-signers add some security, the family’s newness to the U.S. and uncertain job situation make them a higher risk overall. 

Consider all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

You must keep the tenants security deposit at a bank that physically operates a branch office in the State of NC.  

Glad we're secured, but nothing in rei is passive.

Some of these Guys are pros at selling if you can secure a deal for 50 % off why would anyone give it away their are legit joint venture partners on this site that will help you and treat you much better as a partner just post it and see what kinda response you get .Have a good day.

@Seidy Lasker Wash sale rules apply to stock options if they are deemed "substantially identical" to a security sold at a loss within 30 days, such as options with similar expiration dates or strike prices.

Thanks for the feedback—it really makes me step back and think about this whole situation.To answer your question about the hard money loan: I went that route because I needed to close quickly, and hard money was the fastest way to secure the deal.

Good luck on your journey and I hope you provide the financial security you hope for to your daughters. 

Toward the end before closing, they gave bunch of excuses like security breach in their company, don't like the file and the property.

If it does you have zero asset/income, a much larger debt secured by your personal residence, at just the time you probably also lose your job due to economic conditions, and all those nice folks teaching you about sno ball, infinity, you’re your own bank, etc., will be long gone.
