They owe 90,000 with 670 monthly payment. the house is worth 160,000 as a 3-2 with 2 car garage. property is in great condition. the house they want will require a 60k down payment and they may still qualify with another mortgage but i cant guarentee it.I cant buy it from them because my DI ratio is maxed as i have 2 HELOCs on my rental properties along with 3 mortgages including my personal property. my wife is a stay at home mom and I own my own business, qualifying for a mortgage is insanely difficult with no W-2 income.

I found this very interesting article about Airbnb in Tucson that I thought it would be of interest to investors who are having intention to start their Airbnb business:Original Article Courtesy of Carol Ann Alaimo of tucson.comShort-term vacation rentals a multimillion-dollar industry in TucsonBusiness is booming in the land of sunshine and saguaros for those who rent to tourists through a popular online booking platform.Tucson property owners collectively took in more than $8 million from Airbnb rentals last year and demand continues to soar in the run-up to the city’s annual gem show.About 53,000 visitors stayed at local Airbnb properties in 2017, a 73 percent increase from the year prior when about 30,500 did so, said Laura Rillos, a spokeswoman for the San Francisco-based company.Total rental income for participating Tucson property owners jumped from $5.1 million in 2016 to $8.4 million last year, Rillos said.The short-term rental trend has been good for the local economy because it serves those who otherwise might not come, said Dan Gibson, a spokesman for Visit Tucson, the city’s tourism bureau.That’s especially true during peak periods when local hotels tend to sell out, such as during the gem show or homecoming weekend at the University of Arizona, he said.
