I have searched over and over again and cant find anything on Merrill having a true SD Roth.Even tho i would be opening a fresh new ROTH, my plan is to be able to purchase RE very soon hopefully when the market turns around but wont be able to contribute enough into it even tho i will max out the Roth every year to fund even a down payment.

Hi John - Do you have any company recommendation for 12+ windows - I know I wont get the same rate , but I was quoted 500 a window and I have 12 fricking windows in my porch  :-) 

You will definitely have water problems at some point and your furnishings and valuables will be destroyed.

Personally I know things break and tenants use/destroy everything, homes deteriorate over time, so having money set aside for the roof, boiler, water heater, etc., might be a good idea.And remember, these are just numbers on a spreadsheet.

my assumption is that reading some of the deals on BP would help but I know for me reading it wont allow me to learn as much as doing and failing myself.

Most folks I see wont even think of buying if they have no equity going in, but your right, of course I wouldn't have equity if I out up none of my own cash so not a problem.

I had to run away from a deal a year ago because the entire crawl space was destroyed by termites.

Contingencies for inspection, including mandatory wood destroying insect report and financing with a waiver that says if the property doesn't appraise for the sale price, the buyer gets all deposit money back.  45 day close.Who wins?  

If they move back, this special break is destroyed (details are complicated and involve the non-qualified use concept).Step 7.

You are basically covering your deposit and children are likely the ones to destroy the unit the most haha.
