Aside from the usual stuff (IE..collection accounts, judgements, foreclosures, bankrupties), two things that will drag your credit score down in a hurry are a history of late payments and maxed out credit lines.So like takleberry said, pay your bills on time and keep your current credit card balances below about 40% of your available credit.

I'm looking at a condo that's a quasi-condo-tel - there's an optional front-desk-management program, to be in it, you must live up to the hotel finishes, but as a condo owner, you may opt out, and live in your condo, or use whatever management company you want to manage it.On a cash-flow basis, its a loser, its far from the 2% rule, but because its in a vacation area, the occupancy is low in off-season, so you can have off-season use of your condo without really giving up any revenue.

most of the people end up being greedy and over pricing their house because they think its worth more, or they lack the work ethic to finish the flip in a timely manner, and no one on that show can make a realistic budget apparently.
