Also, moving from a property that's being treated to another one with no history of bedbugs will just spread the infestation to the new unit unless they're leaving everything they own behind and showing up to get keys freshly showered and in their birthday suits.

Ask the lender to tell you about the buyer's strengths (credit score, job history, debt-to-income ratio, etc.) and also ask if the file has been all the way through underwriting, as sometimes there are potential issues that can be brought up by the underwriter way down the line that can challenge the borrower to get the loan.As far as someone beating you up over inspection reports, that's always a tough one.

Straight from the Fannie Mae Selling Guide - Verifying Capital Gains IncomeDocument a two-year history of capital gains income by obtaining copies of the borrower’s signed federal income tax returns for the most recent two years, including IRS Form 1040, Schedule D.Develop an average income from the last two years (according to the Variable Income section of B3-3.1-01, General Income Information), and use the averaged amount as part of the borrower’s qualifying income as long as the borrower provides current evidence that he or she owns additional property or assets that can be sold if extra income is needed to make future mortgage loan payments.Note: Capital losses identified on IRS Form 1040, Schedule D, do not have to be considered when calculating income or liabilities, even if the losses are recurring.Due to the nature of this income, current receipt of the income is not required to comply with the Allowable Age of Credit Documents policy.

Turns out that Response was one of the biggest scam in history with a payout to those who filed complaints to $11 million. 

If that $100-$200/door is just on the first day, but they are super high quality doors with a long history of appreciation in both rents and prices, then that is a totally different story and that would accelerate your progress and you will get there much faster than you may think.

I think the combination of those two things might serve me well as I get underway with wholesaling, and eventually the other aspects of REI.I have lived in the Houston area all my life and have grown to really appreciate the culture and history that is part of our great city. 

Before we get our hands dirty on the renovation, a little history of myself…I am very fortunate to have a dad that was able to teach me a lot about carpentry and general contracting.

It is less in the older homes as many of them were previously updated.Something that I like to do when researching Indianapolis (Marion County) homes is to do a permit history search for both the home in question and the homes in the immediate area.

My relative has taken awesome care of the house, so it would need cosmetic touches most likely, nothing more substantial, and we'd have a complete and honest history of the capex over the past 30 years of ownership. 

@Peter MckernanYes indeed I have set standards, which, for now, is Credit score 600+Revenus ≧ 3x rentGood feedback from previous landlordNo recourse against themI would accept an applicant with a credit score sub 600 for lack of credit history and/or first time renter (non landlord feedback) if they have an endorser who meet the requirement.Like I said, screening process is in process for both of them, but there's a good chance they'll meet all the requirement :/ Of course I would like to rent to the second one  because he want to stay a long time.
