And the big bonus is that after 6 months or a year, you can balloon the seller financing with a conventional loan based on appraisal valuation instead of purchase price.

If your deal still makes sense, and you didn't underestimate the repairs, you get a bonus when you sell.

i just closed on the last of the "conventional financing" house i can get. i have 11 rentals, 10 of which are financed with banks. i put 25% down, 30 yr. then i have my personal house under the same type of financi...

Bonus points if you have a solution to my bird problem!!

Then there are tenant friendly states like Texas which add a bonus.

As a bonus My Rent Source was able to get me a $100 more a month in rent than what I was anticipating.

It would get more exposure on the MLS.

My wife and I are in our mid thirties, dual six-figure incomes and generous bonuses help with paying the mortgages even without rent so we're probably ok with the risk portion - we know we can handle the mortgages just fine.

They were a kind of move-in bonus, but they still belong to us if/when the tenants move.

This I have found, gives me maximum exposure.
