One recent post was where they were to split profits, and then one started renting the properties, and wanted paid a healthy amount for management, and they ended up in a disagreement that caused friction for them.

You can shear the sheep many times, but only skin it once.

Choose a healthy market, create superior product, and price aggressively.

My goal is a healthy cash flow; hence I didn't want to pay PMI on either and have low monthly payments.

If your market is a healthy market, where things on houses are tightening up, and prices are beginning to appreciate, that's a perfect market for selling lots to builders!

My credit is not the Best, but not the worst either....around the middle. and with me having a 6 member familyto support, my ability to put 'skin in the game' is rather difficult.Any suggestions???

Better you can have air quality test done by any remediation agencies in order to know the extent of mold and take actions after that..Last year in my home by Healthy Environmental in Ontario.

Some require monthly payouts, some just want the money to grow and they'll take it out when the project sells.Your investor is going to want you to have "skin in the game."

They don't look so much to credit or income but to the skin in the game, your equity.

I personally don't like any growing in my rentals because of the water, heat, humidity are all negatives to a healthy house.
