Also know that the housing market might not go up as quickly as you like...but honestly as long as it cash flows when you move out that is okay...I recommend saving up at least 6 months' worth of rents and having it cash flow at least $300 a month before moving out of the property.

The information was decent but with all gurus there is a lot of upselling which depending on your level of expertise, may not be worth the price. 

It's more straight forward to replace faucets, sinks, light fixtures, etc, all of which can typically be done without a permit.Only homeowners working on their own owner-occupied home are excepted from the requirement that a permit be pulled by a licensed builder - but even then the homeowner *does* have to pull the required permit.

On the other hand, you are risking the money and that's worth a lot.

I don't think the time and effort would be worth the gain. 

There is a fee but to me it is worth it.

Jack MillerProbably but there is also a significant risk because these borrowers typically do not qualify for conventional financing so the default rate jumps from what is on average 3-5 % to well over 10%.Let’s say you get an extra $10 or $20k, I have seen borrowers do a lot more damage than that to a property as well.

My house worth $325,000 right now and my family is definitely moving to Dallas Texas in the next 3 years.

Typically, when we close with a conventional lender there is paperwork we sign that states we intend to occupy the house for at least a year.  

How much do they think their house is worth?
