Are single family’s an option ?

It's a great way to get a foot in the door and it provides more lending options as well if you owner-occupy.

We are supposedly getting that option at the end of this month.

My property taxes have gone up again for 2024 (Indiana).I'm surprised by the number of landlords who never raise rents - a few of them that I talked to in San Francisco Bay Area haven't raised the rent in over 15 years.

I recently came across this "FHA construction to permanent Loan" option which seems almost too good to be true, so I wanted to get some input on how this works and where I might be able to find a lender.

I meant not to live on but solely to withdraw, pay the tax and invest in RE.I am trying to decide if I should draw out everything from tax deferred retirement account, pay the tax and invest in RE (move into Roth as another option)before I hit RMD point.Hoping to hear from those who have walked the walk and share actual experience of their success/roadblocks. 

I don't know anyone there personally doing it like we do, but it's something to consider.The other option, of course, is to just try and bump up your expected monthly cost from 10% to something like 12% - 15%.

Is there any other options I can use?

Hello! There is some land near where I live that came up for sale. I feel like I remember hearing one of the podcast or somewhere that the appraised value of timber on the land can be used as down payment for purchasi...

Hey @Fadela Zaoui - if its a court ordered sale... unlikely sellers would entertain seller financing, but the answer's always no unless you ask :) I recommend working with your broker to figure out what the sellers really want - sounds like one of the sellers wants to cash out so they may not be the person that wants to do seller financing BUT the other seller may be open to it.You could also potentially look at a joint venture option where you just buy out the seller that wishes to sell her portion, and partner up with the other equity holder who now gets to retain their piece of the pie.
