Real estate is an awesome way to creatively generate income to support you and your family.

However, the numbers don't support that as a widespread practice.

A lot of information are waiting for you to search and you can learn also  from supportive members here. 

@Steve Burt -If an MLO was involved, as @Chris Seveney mentioned there will be a loan origination application and supporting paperwork to review.

I’m going to go do that, and without guidance and support, they get into bad deals, just to do a deal, and it sets them back weeks, months, or even years(yes I’m talking to you @JD Martin).

Some are like Joseph Taylor, a corrections officer who saw Christian’s roadside billboard touting zero-down mortgages.

I’m an adventurer, a little unconventional, and I’d like to live a bunch of different places throughout my life, so setting up systems and processes to support virtual work is super appealing to me.

Hi Jonas,Sorry to hear that, please send a screenshot of the error to support@biggerpockets.com so we can check.

What you just described supports my idea of hopefully working with property managers as an intermediary between me and any out of state investors.

Depends on the State Regulations. 6.Seller SecondsThis is a mortgage issued by the seller to the buyer that is placed in a subordinate or second position to an existing first mortgage from a conventional lender; seller second can be a great incentive to buyers; can help them purchase by putting down less cash-leveraging their assets; second mortgages typically carry a higher interest rate than first mortgages, an advantage for the seller over other investment options; a seller second can open new opportunities for buyers in markets where conventional lenders are tightening their loan to value guidelines and buyers need a way to close the resulting financing gap; lenders who want to limit their exposure may agree to a "Combined Loan to Value" guideline that supports a seller second; seller seconds may help buyers reduce their conventional loan needs below the PMI (private mortgage insurance) level, saving significant dollars per month; seller seconds can also help in larger purchases, reducing the amount buyers would need to borrow conventionally, bringing their remaining loan requirement within reduced rate "jumbo" loan territory; some conventional loans prohibit secondary financing; second loans not disclosed to conventional lenders are illegal.sellers granting a second loan must file a lien on the property. 7.Lease with Option and Lease PurchaseA lease with option to purchase is an agreement that the leasing party can buy (or not buy) the property at lease end for an agreed price; a lease purchase agreement, the leasing party commits to purchasing the property immediately at lease end; the owner agrees to apply a portion of the monthly rent payment toward either the buyer's down payment or closing costs at time of purchase.
