This helps since many students aren't from the the local area.Provide simple waste baskets in each room, its only about $3-$5 and believe it or not it will prevent bug infestations because the students actually use them.

I would imagine that they have rules to prevent any short cuts to the process.

@Matt DevincenzoI was working in Dallas in August 2011 - I'll take -45F over 112F any day.What amount of insulation is wrapped on this ductwork to prevent it from heating up during a prolonged spell of 90+F temperatures (where it could easily be 120F in the attic space)?

Is there a local Crime Prevention group for the neighborhood?

Would refi after hitting 20% to tradtional loan prevent the extra expense of permanent MIP payments, or do you thing the interest rate will have gone up enough in that time frame to not be useful.I am currently living with my dad and am only paying ~200/month( I am 21, forgot to mention, lol), but thats actually because he and my grandmother were both unemployed, so i moved in to help with expenses, (having been living in my own apartment before that), and their finances are now in order, hence my desire to move into my first purchase.

This was done to help prevent a neighbor from losing his house due to foreclosure, and allowing some time for things to improve, but not an agreement I wanted to be in indefinitely, hence the 5 year balloon.

You can rent for $900+ until the end of time, and I don't believe there are terms that exist which would prevent this one from cash-flowing.

Is it legal to advertise for "Private Loans Wanted" or does the SEC prevent that?

That way the owner monitors and follows up on the crisis and hopefully prevents it happening again. 

For instance:$5000/month cash flow desired / $200 average cash flow per unit = 25 doorsNow this is just a projection, of course, but it helps keep you on track.On historic buildings, make sure there are no rules or regulations preventing you from doing certain things, like upgrades, or restricting property usage.
