I just found a house online that sold for something stupid low like $12k.

Okay guys , so I think I might've found my first deal 4 unit mixed use property right outside of Rochester NY , 2 store fronts that need a little bit of work , maybe carpeting .

have you found any techniques or ways to partner with landlords to help ease their concerns? 

I soon found out why.

This is something that I have grown increasingly aware of and believe in; that there will always be unknowns for your first deal, there will always be reasons why you "shouldn't yet", and I just feel as though I've almost gotten myself to a tipping point of just pulling the trigger (obviously once I've run the numbers and believe I've found a good deal).

I found a wholesale lender who is willing to take this into consideration.

I have only found as low as 75k for stated, everything under 75k is full doc.

this is what I found on HVAC ducts in this 1940-50 brick row townhouse. do u think it might be asbestos ?

They can be found.

Equity approx 150k combined.I have 50k saved and another 20-30k that i am considering to borrow from my TSP (401k) at 2% interest.My question is whats the best investment i can do with that 70k plus potentially equity from my two other properties.I have found a 4 unit in texas for 225k with already tenants occupied bringing in $2645 month.
