You might get lucky and find someone willing to provide a generic proof-of-funds letter and bank statement you could submit, but many agents now understand these are generally not worth the paper they’re printed on.

I may print those out for my tenants too.

Even if they aren't dealing drugs, the smell and the foot traffic would most likely be enough to drive first floor tenants crazy.

Showings are part of the business to negotiate a contract, minors can't contract nor do they carry any legal standing in the business to be conducted, so yes, you can shoot yourself in the foot and say no minors until a lease has been executed.

And, Amy, I'm not the kind of guy that gets jealous if my date dances with others, you'd be safe too, I've got some pretty fancy foot work with my cane! 

I'm new to Dallas, and I'm just now putting my foot in the water in terms of real estate investing.  

So I think you would be very interested in a prefab or modular home since you can build a 1500sq foot for under $140,000 that's less then $100 a square foot to build your own custom home.

So the data we have shows rents escalating year over year and price per square foot on both the purchase and sale of the property as higher on a quarterly basis, year over year.One thing we have noticed in Houston is that there is less competition right now.  

Would going low oppose to taking the risk of finding a private lender to grab something of a higher price ($450k+ multi-family) in a "already "high market value" Boston have a better result or understanding while slowly but surely getting the foot in the door in investing? 

For this type of wall typically the only footing required is 6" of #57 stone compacted and leveled.
