These are 12-18% lenders, with nice fat points.

It's also been well established in lending that Asian borrowers tend to live on much less than us fat, must have it now type Americans, savings is generally higher, just saying, don't apply your personal expectations as to your life style on others, stay neutral and see what their life style is through general conversation.I'm not trying to push you toward accepting these folks but skimming the top with ratios and assumptions may lead to losing very good tenants.Those pets probably won't cost a hundred bucks, my two monster dogs were only a hundred bucks.Again, how long is this situation reasonably expected to exist of relying only on the royalty income?

Even the savviest of flippers fat prey to the contractors manipulation from time to time.

Once I move out of the one I'm in now I will rent it out and once it is fat enough I think I might sell it.
