Both strategies have big challenges and their own unique headaches so it's easy to get sick of your current problems and quickly decide to change course.

Having some cash removes one of the largest obstacles most new investors face.

Hey Ben Leybovich,I love you Ben, but I have to challenge your wager with Brandon Turner and Joshua Dorkin.

On the face of it, based on the numbers you provided, this looks like a solid deal to me.

Start Up loans can be exceptionally challenging to fund.

I still remember the look on their faces when I walked them through my first ugly little duplex.

I wholesale lease options all over the country and never see the house (other than pictures), never meet the seller or buyer face to face.

Jump in, ask questions, answer what you can, and become a familiar face around here.

Experienced LO's know what to ask and how to approach things usually from that same issue blowing up in their face in the past.When an application has distorted information on it, the Loan Approval, which is how they put a rate and generic terms on your loan will also be flawed.

They will need to get creative to solve the problems faced, a sinking fund won't cut it and it will take decades to revive but I'm sure there are profits to be made for those who can identify the diamond in the rough. :)
