Hi folks,Is there anyone that is self-managing their buy/hold properties in The Villages?

Also, Fannie/Freddie will only finance 75% of the value of your duplex once it is considered an investment property. 

I've been waiting for this property to come up for sale.

I have been interested in property investing for quite some time now.

@Jake Hughes You can do an 80 LTV DSCR rate and term refinance using the appraised value of the property, you will just need to have it rented out before closing. 

Even if it does appreciate, the only way you realize those gains is if you sell.  

Would love to connect and see what kind of Investing strategies and types of properties you are interested in.

If you are looking at properties in need of renovation, they want you to know your costs up front and many will be as-is purchases with the expectation that you aren't requesting repairs and your costs are confirmed.Depending on your state, but likely in all states, you have an inspection contingency in the contract, but what you will learn is that you will be competing against seasoned investors and contractors who know their numbers and houses so make better as-is offers.

Applicants can view properties without scheduling, after hours, and on weekends or holidays.However, the lack of human interaction does come with a price.

I am purchasing a property through a wholesaler and the wholesaler wants me to pay his assignment fee outside of closing.
