It's mostly people that can afford to purchase and flip or purchase and "repurpose" a property somehow.

I had to let this particular Maywood deal go because of all the red tape. it was just too frustrating.

314 Cherry St Southeast Grand Rapids, MI 49503Can't afford it but it looked good to me, even with the owners optimistic rental forecast.

Thus, I only do flips in the price range that I could afford to rent and carry indefinitely should I not be able to sell – this is just me…Good luck

This is something they can choose not to insure or to charge more for, unfortunately there doesn't seem to be much we can do about it.What I find frustrating is that they'd rather I rent to someone fresh out of high school who isn't going to school than the exact same person who is.

Problem is, he's not in real estate and doesn't even know where to begin.It's a pretty specific property, I mean it's really only available for an investor who wants (and can afford) to build on it.

If you're looking at an end buyer, someone who can only afford $45,000 for a house is likely to need a lot of help to actually get in.

One of my tenants who has been on time like clockwork with her rent for over two years recently had a payment lost in the mail - at least this is her story and I really think she's telling me the truth because of her payment history before and after this incident.The problem is that she pays every month with an AMSCOT money order, so she's out the $750, I don't have it, and she lives paycheck to paycheck and can't afford to make it up - at least not all at once.

Ask yourself if you can afford higher payments.

Typically when you're young you can't afford an expensive policy so it's wise to at least get term insurance, but when you get term insurance I've learned that it's best to make sure it's convertible to a life insurance policy with a cash value component.
