There are people from all walks of life, and like yourself people stay where there comfortable and know their surrounds.

I feel very comfortable with lease options but I wouldn’t do them in Texas.

It may take you 9 months just to be comfortable to get started if you're coming into this on ground zero,...

So I'm trying to see the negative of reducing cashflow, if it is a good idea, more risky... etc.So at the moment, yes would be nice to have more 'cash flow', but in my current situation, I make enough money from my day job that I'd be comfortable working 9-5 until I had developed a substantial amount of wealth. 

One suggestion I have is to figure out how much cash flow you'll need to live comfortably in Nashville. 

I'm an only child and I used Legalzoom to draw up a last will and testament.

Only you will be able to figure out what you are comfortable with and that will depend on your goals.

I've run into trouble in the past when mom and pop operators can't provide enough details for the lender to get comfortable.

Build a relationship with a few banks, and magically underwriting starts to dwindle as they become more comfortable with you.

I guarantee there will be much more wrong that you don’t see.I personally wouldn’t offer on a house I couldn’t walk and feel comfortable if it’s condition.
