I am so excited to have come across this website when doing some research online, I've gone through numerous threads and the amount of information on this website is both amazing and overwhelming.

I had the intention to reward this agent if he brought me great deals and I definitely would have.

The current option of removing some expenses for rent will help her with saving her earnings for a down payment...a reward for gaining (and maintaining) the scholarship.

I posted in March about my experiences and I still have not been rewarded any bids from HUD with the percentages that John's worksheet calculates.

I agree with @Phillip Dwyer you want to reward good behavior.

The only concern I had initially was that when I asked about how often inspections were done he said that in his experience it was best to NOT do them so renters didn't get a chance to complain about numerous minor issues.His company charges a $150 set up fee, entire amount of first months rent and 7% of rent collected going forward.

The risk is much higher and the reward has to be much higher as well, which would be difficult, if you want to make the payments lower than the original mortgage.There are a lot of ifs involved in this.

Rough area, but I wanted a high-risk, high-reward opportunity to cut my teeth.

Have numerous properties by networking but need to build a customer base to sell quickly .

Long distance investing is a challenge but if you do your homework and develop local contacts it is rewarding.
