Is anyone out there buying 2nd of lower position debt and then contesting the validity of the senior loans?

I also thought about considering inclusion of either a new fridge or washer/dryer to add as one time operating costs (1,000 under repairs and maintenance)I wound up getting a taxable income of 950 bucks after things like debt service and depreciation.

Will or no will, high value or low value, multiple heirs or a single child, mortgages or no debts, all these things will be factors in determining the complexity of the case.Since you'll need to know the next of kin (either directly or obtained from death certificate) you'll also need to think through what you'd say to someone who just lost a close relative. 

I understand that this is an investor site for investment opportunities but because I have read so many scary reviews about companies that RTO clients have fallen victim too, I thought that this may be a good place to inquire.Although I will remain in the same line of work, I know that qualifying with a 2/3 salary decrease and new job my debt to income ratio will not allow me to outright purchase something and I haven't lived in an apartment in over 20yrs.

I have clients that own 1 to 5 vacation rentals here on Mau i and once you hit that threshold of 5 you may be put into a commercial status (5+ units), so qualifying can be a bit more difficult, looking at such things as:What has that person owned and what has been their management experience collecting rent and managing propertiesThe borrower's credit score, income and personal and business tax returns will be considered along with two years' operating statements and a current rent roll for the property.Also important are property metrics, such as: Net operating income: The annual income, minus expenses that a property generates from its operationsDebt service coverage: Measure of cash flow relative to debt payment obligationsLoan-to-value (LTV) ratio: A measure of the loan amount relative to the value of the propertyThe property has to service its debt at a comfortable marginOf course each lender can be a bit different, so it's good to shop around if needed.I hope that helps.BTW - what do you consider big money?  

We have made some poor financial decisions and we are scratching and clawing our way out of debt now while raising two girls under 24 months.

Im a licensed RE agent in Fresno CA, considering to bid for a property on public auction in auction.com, hubzu.com, homesearch.com. my question is.. for example, when I place a winning bid of 100K, and the property has a total estimated debt of 300K, does that mean I have to pay 400K for the property in order to get the title? 

If they don’t, then you’re rewarded for your risk in carrying that paper; you’re now getting 12% for holding that paper, and there is no balloon.ABILITY TO REPAYThe second category requires you to determine the buyer’s ability to repay, but the rules and the regs don't specify any standards for doing it (such as the qualified mortgage standard, a 43% debt to income ratio, etc.).

@earl hoyowardHi EarlI was taught that your personal life should have as little debt as possible and that your businesses should carry the debt because you will be generating revenue to pay the debt.  

Will our consideration and amount increase if we wait to apply for it after reducing our debt load some or does it mostly depend on the value of our home vs what is owed?
