On a high level, it seems really attractive as I can get a loan with 3% downpayment and no PMI or use the LPMI program where the lender pays the MI (I know I qualify for the loan).

I do have the luxury at my age of living in a house that is paid for so my train of thought says to invest in rentals while I have no mortgage and no kids.

I wonder if there is a correlation between programming and rental property ownership/management? 

(Like certain brands of partnerships) This little known fact is why everyone should consult an attorney before jumping on the LLC train.

What I would like is someone located in the Baltimore area who is a seasoned investor who wouldn't mind taking on a new bird dog; NOT just to find you properties, but to train him on what it takes to become a successful investor. 

(Though I believe they had disrespected me more by then)First day was a very  general overview of subject-to, wholesaling, sales pitch for their master program, marketing,   system automation (hook for their master program, again).

If B of A does well with their new 3% down program, other banks will likely follow their footsteps.If history is any indication, the higher we go, the harder we fall.

Train you?

I host a small networking/training group (no selling) on the 3rd Thursday of every month at Wildwood. 

The track season short term rentals and constant demand from people employed at the Navy training facility could make it work well for buy & hold.
