I'm amazed at the amount of information on this site.

BUT I was also told that given the fact that both of the police officers to whom I had spoke knew of the previous owner and the company they kept (small town), that there is a "good chance" meth was used in the home.What do I do with this information?

I'm 21 years old and so far BP, some books and youtube have been my main resources for information. 

Many Realtors and/ or Mortgage Brokers will not tell you this information.

Make sure to check out all of the informative podcasts.

Some of the best information from these meetings is in meeting others with experience not always the speaker. 

At last minute my lender informed me that they would not lend money to a community that is 15% or more of rentals.

Let me add some information that some are requesting:Student loan interest rate: 3.9% Average, $1,500/mo minimum paymentsOur budget: We have been following the Dave Ramsay approach for monthly budgets for a while now and have had a lot of success.

I have listened to many podcasts and feel bigger pockets is the most informative of them all.

I've send you a private message with some more information.
