I have a question regarding lease option buyers.  Once of the assumptions we make about lease option buyers is that they probably can't qualify for a bank loan.  If that's the case, what are some of the screening tech...

Money spent on physical infrastructure outside of improvements for educational purposes does not receive any tax advantage.  

The idea in apartment complex or hotel searching is that you need to find something that you can immediately improve (then probably refinance).What should you be looking for exactly that lets you know you can improve this property right away?

As the ARV goes up I find the extent of repairs/improvements does too.

Maybe or may be not, I plan to get loan in the next few months for an inherited property in North Carolina but I do have dinged credit from past mistakes.

After running extensive screenings (background/credit checks, references from employers and landlords), the tenants have split up and are breaking their lease after a month and a half.

They are a nice couple, however do not have good credit yet checked out with their prior landlord.

It doesn't show up on my credit report, but not sure if that would be the case with every bank.

ITIN's have been and are used to extend credit and are very specifically designed for foreign nationals to use in place of an SSN.

It need's lots of improvement more than I thought when first purchased .
