But you can still find some deals on the North like Lynn, Revere, Everett, Chelsea, and the South Shore like Quincy, Weymouth.

Looking for bigger deals and close to the shores without breaking the bank.

On the south shore, there are so few options that don't have high maintenance costs, but maybe I should run the numbers a little more closely.

There are typically two specific types: a Permanent Buy down, and a Temporary Buy down.a) In a Permanent Buy down, a sufficient amount of interest is prepaid to lower the rate permanently. b) In a Temporary Buydown, only a sufficient interest is paid to lower the payment for the first three years. 1) The reason to temporarily “buydown” a loan is to lower the current payments, thereby more easily qualifying for the loan.

Additionally you will have to migrate all of the information from the temporary solution to the permanent, which may not be a trivial task.  

also don't get sucked into the offers on the internet  for cheap money those are 99.9% scammers off shore looking to get due diligence money out of you

@Daniel Stanton Have you considered the south shore and south coast?

@Lazaro La Rosa Hard Money Loans are generally temporary loans.  

That 0 is only temporary, but it's important to think of your profit / time unit so that you focus on what you're good at doing and outsource out things that take up your time that don't add a lot of value.

I decided to try Airbnb when I was on a constant deployment and temporary duty cycle for work.
