I have cash for fixes, at least critical ones

@Ran Iarovich Good communication and punctuality are critical for me when working with anyone, but especially an agent.

It's critical, absolutely critical, that you take the time and effort to carefully vet the syndicator.

I have teenage sons, so my auto insurance is about to hit critical mass without this upgrade lol

There is a small detached garage on the lot, but most of the lot is flat lawn, with a bit of the land classified as a critical area sloping down into a greenbelt.

Yes, I agree with your motivation; however, I disagree with starting an LLC from the jump due to the following factors:(1) High costs and maintenanceWhen starting out in real estate, maintaining cash flow is critical.

Chris I have installed nothing but elastOmeric coating systems for 13 years and I can assure you that if you want a sustainable long term repair then use a high quality, high solid content, Elastomeric coating system with reinforcement in critical areas.

I looked into just getting started with a 20k to 40k fixed rate home equity loan at the local credit union, but hit a roadblock there (I am still unsure why and will call them when I get time next week).Anyway, I'm just looking for general criticism of my plans here, and any suggestions about how to solve the cash crunch for getting this ball rolling.

Conventional loans usually have stricter credit requirements than FHA loans.Pros:No mortgage insurance if down payment is 20% or moreMore options for loan types and termsHigher loan limitsCons:Higher down payment requirementStricter credit requirementsMore difficult to qualify for than FHA loansThe down payment is a critical part of the homebuying process, and there are different options for down payments and loans associated with them.

Also I think it’s such an interesting area of real estate that seemingly will be more critical and valuable over the near to long term.
