Kyle it's an easy decision.It's like a custom house where you have to find that ONE buyer to love it versus a neutral house that appeals to the masses.If it's a deep blue it's worth it to buy some primer first so you don't have to put on 4 coats of paint to cover it.To paint the kitchen you might have 50 to 60 bucks in materials if you do yourself.You will get that back alone with the first months rent payment.My experience is tenants will take an off color but then they want a discount for it.My apartments are 1,200 sq ft units.I get 5 gallons of Home Depot paint for 53.00.

I prefer smaller 2 bedroom houses with no basements.

If I get a few applicants and I see a person has moved around twice in the last 3 years and another person is pretty equal except they don't seem to move around as much I tend to prefer a person who will stay more than just one year.

Preferably do this before you shut down the lines, but if you can find additional credit at this point, that's better than where you are.

They are actually getting quicker at issuing approvals in my experience.If you are attempting your first short sale, I suggest you find a SS negotiator who is familiar with the process rather than attempt to do it all yourself.I don't like to do SS anymore these days because of the length of time involved, but that's just my preference.

Ok, I am confused too, Its my first time need a HM. here is what exactly on my email from the HM lender:""We prefer to fund vested to an entity (LLC, or Corp.) however for your first deal or two we can fund in your individual name.

If you must, go there with a contractor on your "team", who you know and trust (preferably the sales person doesn't even know).

My experience is with older landlords they prefer to get more cash up front and shorter owner financing terms.

Originally posted by Will Barnard:That Realtor (listing agent) would get the seller's side of the commission, I would come in with my agent who would get his/her side (buyers side) - or I offer the list agent to double end and possibly kick back some to me, then I keep the spread between the locked up price and the price I charge my wholesale buyer.of course most listings these days that are anywhere near a deal are short sales or REO properties in which case they are not assignable which means I need to double close or use some other creative circumvention of that dilema such as using a trust or entity.Will is correct and that is the preferred method....
