So get out and attend a few before making any decisions.Initially you will hear great stories from people, but sit down and research these "stories" and find out what the truth is.

Negotiate the best deal you can based on your research.

Wells Fargo just informed me that I need to have a commercial loan to do this and that they would call for full payment if they found out I moved it.Clearly, this is my mistake for not adequately researching this and ensuring my bases were covered.

I'm going to do some research to learn more about this type of transaction, but I'm guessing it doesn't go well with foreclosures, right?

I plan on starting some serious research in the Syracuse, NY and Raleigh, NC areas.

Thanks for the reply MikeOH...From my research, (phone calls) I'm having zero luck finding the portfolio lenders here in my city.

I help people who are from out of town do research here so they can get the properties they want.

This would include doing your research, exit strategies, emergency planning etc.

I've already done quite a bit of research and feel that I have "enough" knowledge to make the first move.

Still reading and researching.
