I went ahead and installed a few battery powered smoke/co detectors inside the apartments as well.  

Hello Tam C. yep buying and holding is a great way to go.Life has it's ups and downs, having your own income stream, in addition to your job, give you a lot of security.Best to you.PS - upload a head shot - come'on

Please feel free to correct any of this that is wrong, again it is what I have come to understand in my limited knowledge.Sorry this is so long, its just not something that is very well explained, no one I know even knows this exist, so I feel like I am a little fish in a big sea, but have no idea where to start.Thank you again ahead of time for assistance and guidance.

I could almost tell that you are rushing too much to buy that house and for sure you will end up buying retail and not really a rehab property.

For example, there are animals that have an innate ability to detect that a person with a seizure disorder is about to have a seizure and can let the individual know ahead of time so that the person can prepare.

The basic idea being to calculate your DTI ahead of time to make sure it'll work, take it out of deferment, close on the mortgage, and put that student loan debt right back into deferment.

You do definitely have a head start! 

I'm 16, so this might be a few years ahead, but I all ways love to plan everything ahead of time.  

Every time you pay close to retail for a property, you are limiting your opportunity to get ahead of the game.

If you just put the @ and wait, it will search through the entire database, but if you "give it a head start", it will take much less time to populate your options.
