But so far, I do not think they will be the ones that win.A company like Alphabet, Amazon, Facebook or E-bay could probably overwhelm them with investment.

Hi all,I'm brand new to BP but was hoping to get some feedback on an e-mail I am considering writing to an investor/buyer team who I have an agreement with to assign a contract to. 

Hi @David Acosta,Buy in personal name, or transfer all from entity to personal name when six months out.Avoid blanket financing if at all possible.Use Schedule E to report rental income and expenses if at all possible.I read this as 5 refinances, with 5 refi escrows, and 5 concurrent closings, on 5 properties, to get you into Fannie or Freddie financing.

Your personal LLC would file as a 50% owner on schedule e, you self directed would have to report valuation of assets.  

There might be  a creative and ethical way to approach the situation, perhaps there might be e value add that you could do for the property and let your tenant help with the choice of what they would like i.e. a new fridge or new paint (let them pick colors) and let them know that you will be increasing the rent. it might backfire if they tell you they would rather not change anything but if they do then you can raise rents cover the cost of a minor renovation in a couple months and proceed forward from that point with a higher rent and happy tenants and you will have the added benefit if you do something that with increase your property value like new flooring for a small room.

This is where a title report (O&E) come in handy.  

It does not apply to Schedule E.  

If someone comes to me, I'll send them your way.If you need help in your search or want to verify something don't hesitate to ask.For example: I have clients worldwide and things are just as easy as I e-mail them, talking on the phone.

http://www.cbsnews.com/media/the-10-hottest-real-e...Here's an article that says that Orlando will see the largest rise in home prices this year, at 5.7%.Considering real estate as an investment, these returns are very low compared to the stock market.According to this, one should never invest in the value of real estate because there money would be much better in stocks or even municipal bonds.

My concern with the personal line of credit would be that I would go over the 30% usage of my credit and subsequently hurt my credit.
