Looks like you have a strong rental market: partial article from Boiseinvestmentproperties.netTony A.

I just had a deal fall apart because hud requested the hard money lender show a bank statement or letter from their bank showing they have enough funds to close the deal, when I told the lender about this they were dumbfounded, they told me that the funds was available but it would not be in the lenders account, since they pulling these fund from a pool of investors, and I spoke to more than one hard money lender and they told me the same thing(they were both willing to issue a strong letter of intent, hud said this was a new policy) I am wondering if anybody else has had this experience

It would be absolutely impossible for me to do that if I were still doing all of the work myself.I would strongly encourage you to follow your instinct to find good people to leverage.

Obviously, the construction crew who replaced the roof felt that it was strong enough to support their weight, the plywood sheeting and the shingles.

When the tenant gets nasty, we have to pull out our war chest, cowboy up and prepare for war.Kelly, I would STRONGLY suggest you consult with a real estate/eviction attorney.

We have areas like Orange County which is doing relatively well, and is strong in all those things I mentioned, and other areas that have unemployment up around 20% still, with no economies to speak of.As the market picks up in the more stable areas, and grows to full strength again, people start looking at investing in 2nd homes, etc., and oftentimes those homes are in areas that are great tourist areas, but were very hard hit in economic downturns.

I don't know where you could go from there, as far as showing ownership and then obtaining title, but it may be worth the effort.....or at least some questions to the DMV.In any case, if the MLS listing said that the mobile was part of the deal, at that point, you have a strong case for ownership and may very well be able to sell it as is, understood to the buyer that you won't be able to convey title.

If you do decide to go this direction make sure you have a few things in place, an iron clad business plan, a mentor, and a strong focus on sticking to the plan.

Hi there, I am new to this forum and was highly recommended by real estate friends to ask questions on this website.My husband and I are strongly considering trying to sell our home and buy a new one without real estate representation.

Check with some realtors or property management people to see if there is a strong demand in your particular area for renters.
