@Chris SeveneyThe long-shot play I became aware of; Capital Improvement Project Funding that the city/county have allocated for projects that meet 2 criteria.Have a lifetime greater than 10 yearsCost more than $50,000I believe, even if the water and refuse collection run is only 1000 ft, that may not qualify but to do it "right", that two mile run would allow the entire subdivision to be supplied with services.

(We personally do portfolio and single property loans and will be adding a HELOC product soon!)

My mortgage lender said they aren't able to do this and sent a letter saying it's not possible.

What do you all think are the pro's and con's of a 5 yr ppp in the mid 5% range vs 3 yr ppp in the mid 6% range.

If not, do that for six months and you will know exactly when you should jump from talking to others who did it.

I do not have that type of money to just spend on training.

Let’s do some simple math…If you buy a $300k house, charge $1,900 in rent, and have a 35% expense ratio, you’re at a 4.94% cap.

The contractor seized doing the work and I believe has placed a mechanics lien on the property.

I own the home but I do not live there as my primary residence. 

The way I do it is go to the property records for the county online find the owner's info and then Google search their phone number.
