Just spent over an hour at the bank and they are not able to setup a simple checking account for my new 401k trust to roll funds into.

rent roll, maybe get a couple years Schedule E if possible, list of capital improvements completed and those that need to be done, lead paint or not?

So at the end of a lease, the tenant gives you back the keys, and you take a kwikset key you already have (or you can buy pre-cut keys for cheap) and rekey the apartment to that new key.  

We charged her for the cost of the plumber and the cost of the new toilet.We had another tenant who made the unfortunate mistake of changing the toilet paper roll at the same time she had just flushed the toilet.

- Get on wholesalers email lists- Setup a free account on Zillow or Ziprealty - and get MLS-listed properties that meet a certain criteria (price, certain town, etc) emailed to you automatically; be prepared to make an offer on a property if it does meet your criteria...so have cash, or a pre-approved credit on standby so you can make an offer. - Focus on a certain area...e.g.

Did you buy it at the auction, pre-foreclosure or from the bank? 

I'd love to pick your brain about what the status of the wholesaling market is here.I have a background in construction and construction project management so I expect fix and flipping to be in my future once I get the ball rolling on the cash side.Osiris

I got pre-approved for 150k.They also hook me up with a local Realtor.

My question is this; should we go for a conventional loan for a 2-4 unit and try for a regular pre-approval or go to the commercial side for a 5+ unit and if we choose to do the latter should we run numbers on a few properties before looking for a loan?
