Account Closed I am a bit late to this party but wanted to offer some perspective not directly mentioned in this thread.

About to start My first Direct Mail Campaign.

I'd love to get more info on the deal can you please direct msg or email me it...I can offer my advice....another local person to discuss with is Anand if you remember him he's knee deep into all sort of investment propertiesHope you are well

We have always felt positive about Trenton, and the direction it is moving in. 

@Joseph Renteria, if you've been regularly saving, and already have say $30k saved in an account, you should probably ask your BANK directly: Do they have a COMMERCIAL Lending Department, whose job it is to look more closely at the "deal" you want to buy, rather than your already-owned assets/income?

That is better for me than a direct hit on Miami/West Palm. 

You could use the IRA for the down payment if you change it to a self directed IRA or take the penalty.

I would love to be point in the right direction.

It's an extra step, but now it's a direct transaction, not a third-party transaction.

I realize that is contrary to what most people do, but as a contractor who's doing and/or directing the actual installation and maintenance, it makes a lot of sense for usIn bedrooms, I staple in unfinished 3/4 in. tongue-and-groove oak with 3 coats of oil-based poly to finish it.
