They have a beta import feature for appfolio, so if your property manager uses that you can upload the PDF statements.

So you're not completely anonymous.

Quote from @John Mason: I plan to live in it after 6 months  Ok, so your going to buy it, remove the renters in six months, then it will be your primary? 

Looking at buying a house that had maybe 50 cats in it so it reeks of cat urine. 

I know someone doing very well with the franchise so I think it might have to do with the personal background of the investor getting in to the deal.

In the last 9 months, I formed a 3-person partnership, found a rockstar agent and through him a great lender, insurance provider, and so on.

So I'm in a pretty undesirable situation right now.

I know it has had a rough decade or so but I believe things have been improving over the last few years.

If your monthly income is $8,000, you could get approved for a mortgage payment of around $2,000–$2,500.Credit Score: For investment properties, a score above 700 is ideal.Down Payment: Investment properties generally require a 20-25% down payment, so for a $300,000 property, expect to need $60,000–$75,000 in cash.

So if your use is sporadic, renting may still be the better option.Several different factors play a role in this situation.
