They want to put the listing up live in two days and i'd love to grab it.Can anyone help me get started in the right direction?

By making smart choices that fit your money plans, putting money into a duplex in Lubbock can be a smart way to make your investment bigger.Good luck!

Additionally, you always have the option of loading up on a ton of insurance and putting it under your name.

I will simply buy the item, then hire someone to go and pick it up and put it in storage.  

I would never put my name and reputation at risk working with someone who doesn't match it. 

I anticipated that this might put off investors and sound odd, but if you saw the exact location, you'd understand my reasons. 

The only options that seem available to us are add the parents to our application, remove either parents or wife from the duplex, or in the future put the rents all in my wife's name which might negatively affect my in-laws.You guys are my Hail Mary, hoping you can spot a solution I'm missing!

They want me to pay their license fee and a fee for pulling the permits and putting their name on the job.

I told them that it was a better idea that, instead of buying a home first, we can buy an investment property and keep renting after we build some equity, sell it and put the down payment for 2 houses or a duplex and live in one and rent the other one (for me, i could keep renting until we buy a lot of investment properties and then move to one of them), but my family wants to buy a home firts and then the investment property.Can someone give me a light of what is better or the pros and cons.Thank you so much.

Hello Galen, I would highly suggest not trying to get super creative here and just form your own LLC, buy the property and put it in there, and write this one off as a win!
