@Cosmo DePinto,I’ve seen investors do great in Huntsville—let me share a few detailsIn short, yes—it’s arguably one of the strongest markets in Alabama for a balance between cash flow and appreciation.

So cash flow isn’t the biggest concern.

Quote from @Brad Kremer: Hi everyone,I own a cash-flowing duplex in Austin, TX, that I bought 8 years ago when rates were considerably lower than they are today.

Financing contingency is there if you can't get the loan at the amount you thought, interest rate is raised or your payment changed higher than you put in the loan could give you an out.

I am getting to the point of wanting to back out due to the 27k combined Closing costs, not including down payment. seems like a I should look into finding a new loan officer.

Some companies call this a markup for managing the payment of utility bills.

Cash invested: $65,000 Sale price: $97,000This property was a very early lesson learned in private mortgage financings for me.

Purchase price: $15,000 Cash invested: $25,000 Sub to deal - paid the seller and wholesaler $15,000 + $7500 closing costs to assume $84,000 mortgage with a monthly PITI of $575.

Investors get stuck and cannot cash out because of tax complications.

What I mean is, some investors look strictly at cash on cash return, some look at cap rate, others just want to make sure their mortgage is covered.
