Do I use alternative lender?

I too have looked at alternative builds and ended up thinking myself in a circle right back to stick framing as the numbers worked better and everybody understands it (tradesmen/zoning/inspectors).

If you can get a zero to low loan financing that would be a alternative providing it is less than your returns on your investments and you can pay it off quickly.Credit cards, car loans, leases, student loans are all considered bad debt and should be a individuals number one priority to clear.

Once the tenant & landlord start this push-shoving, damages to the apartment can occur at any time regardless of if/when you file - - it's just human nature -- suck it up and move beyond the disappointment.If she says Sunday, the try to cooperate - - it costs you nothing and you could be home free. 

Thank you in advance…Strategy: Buy and hold with enough equity in each deal to flip as an alternate exit strategy.

I feel that my mind is wired in such a way that REI could come naturally to me.

I would personally just factor it in for a rental increase at a natural cycle and see it as a feature of your rental. 

Following are the similarities and differences between the solo 401k and the self-directed IRA.The Self-Directed IRA and Solo 401k Similarities Both were created by congress for individuals to save for retirement;Both may be invested in alternative investments such as real estate, precious metals tax liens, promissory notes, private company shares, and stocks and mutual funds, to name a few;Both allow for Roth contributions;Both are subject to prohibited transaction rules;Both are subject to federal taxes at time of distribution;Both allow for checkbook control for placing alternative investments;Both may be invested in annuities;Both are protected from creditors;Both allow for nondeductible contributions;Both are prohibited from investing in assets listed under I.R.C. 408(m); andNeither may be invested in your own business. 

I agree with other comments above that $10k is not enough to invest in a buy and hold property yet, but you might want to take a look at an article I wrote about an alternative where I invest in portfolios of 10 SFR at a time, that are co-owned by the managers who are local to the properties in the midwest.
