@Brian Huber  We have it structured the same way it would be on a typical sale using a TREC Sales Contract, so the seller pays their typical costs of title, half escrow fees, survey etc. 

Bring a lot of business cards.Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see. 

I have a buddy whole selling and he is willing to pay me half of his profit for bird dogging he is working with a partner.

If I'm going to do something, I don't ever want to half *** it.

It would be a house hack situation where we would live in the lower half of a duplex and rent out the top half.Also we currently live in a home that we "own" that we would rent out in order to begin our journey into REI. 

I'm not into doing things half-way.

We would look at the product in the 2 mile to 3 mile radius for suburban.

I could have still made lemonade with lemons, but I certainly would have sacrificed a full year and a half of cash-flow with the eviction process, in a major urban area that is not too landlord friendly.

The limit for you is going to be half of the value ($8,500).  

I'm willing to go up to 60 miles away from home for a good property.
