Finally, a roommate and I decided we really wanted to have more disposable income so looked for months for a cheaper place to live, but that was still nice.

Example if you can land an assumable commercial note at 7% and the going rate is 6.5% and with the assumable you put 10% down and the regular lender you put 25% down you have to analyze the cash outlay.You might accept a slightly higher rate with an existing loan with less down.It really is the wild west out there and as the vice president of special assets of Regions told me they look at every file on a case by case basis.They have many tools at their disposal so I just usually talk to them to see what they would consider.It's a bunch of phone calls and follow up to get things done.On the residential side I haven't done much there in years although I am looking into wholesaling to rentals to foreign investors.I have a local Atlanta property manager and they only do rentals and no sales.That is perfect for me as I only do sales.

Radiating a sense of actually caring what the other person says is the most overlooked tool at out disposal.

Now if something should happen to you, your estate can manage the property and dispose of it as needed.

Also, making money with them in the US can trigger withholding when collecting rents and selling/disposing of property.

That is only acceptable in the case you mentioned where you have enough reliably disposable to be comfortable with that.I was just pointing out that real estate generally is still a good business to buy.

But has knowledge in remodeling and building houses and has contractors at his disposal.

With less people at their disposal, they perhaps hear of less DEALS but I might be more likely to get a referral to a deal since I'm one of only 50.Does anyone have any experiences with these companies?

Identify what you can afford based off disposable income to invest, find an area that fits that criteria to where you can invest in.

Two screws, two wires, a connection to the water supply, and a connection likely to your disposer for the waste line.
