I would agree to pay late mortgage payments and save owners credit and stop foreclosure.4.

Think of all the things that could go wrong and see if the lease addresses them: unauthorized pets or tenants, early termination, security deposit, lease violations, late rent, eviction, lawn maintenance, parking, etc.5.

Find one that has the majority of finishes that you like as one of their packages.

I purchased this single family home for $90,000 in late 2015 from Curt David (BuyMemphisNow). 

I may have someone for you, but just wondering what kind of finishes you're looking for.

It's a very old property (late 1800s), so I will be wanting to set aside a good chunk of money in a reserve account for maintenance and Capex.I'm currently self-employed and write off everything under the sun (that's legal, of course) on Schedule C including all home office & related deductions, most of my automobile miles, cell phone, etc, etc, etc. 

I recently finished reading the book on "Investing in Real Estate with No (and low) Money Down" by Brandon Turner and it turned me into a believer; and its only one book of the seven I purchased!

@Jorge De Jesus - Sorry for the late response.No - I am purchasing the house and holding paper for the buyer.

Once the early adapters have spread the current RE "virus" or strategy at too many meetups, and the trend has become a fashion for all, most don't realize, that it's too late to jump on that band wagon.

After I finish school in two years I will either sell the property or hire a property manager and rent out both sections of the house.
