I have access to the Multiple Listing Service and can provide information on any listed home on the market.

i think it's even better to take it one step further and purchse an LLC with IRA. if done right you don't have as many restrictions and have more control.i'm actually in the process of doing this right now. plus, i am getting a huge LOC for the LLC thru the company who is setting this all up for me.it will be just for RE.the company is called Wolfe Capital Group. very interesting.jimbo

It was called the Community Access Mortgage (CAM) that focused on neighborhoods whose house values did not exceed $65K.

One of the realtors for one property hadn't responded to my realtors phone call to gain access into the property; because of this, I waited a half an hour for the realtor to call back.

As another person stated, there's just not enough information about the scenario and the individual needs of the borrower to determine if an interest only loan is appropriate.There is no restriction on an interest only loan preventing a borrower from making principal reduction payments.

Not that it helps the numbers much.Also it's accessed at $183k which is what most SFR's sell for around here.

What are the restrictions?

Currently I am using Zillow and Trulia to look at comps, but I am finding this increasingly inadequate.I am looking for a way to gain access to the MLS without registering as an agent.

To expand, new restrictive rules and penalties are coming from the Dodd -Frank Act, the SAFE act and are being interpreted and enforced by the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau.

In order for me to get access to MLS?
