A 203k Loan is where the purchase price and rehab costs are rolled into a single loan.Assuming you have a respectable FICO you can buy, with a FHA Loan (3-5% down, a 30 year amortization schedule, and a residential loan rate).

If I can continue to meet people like you on here that are willing to help out, I feel pretty good about being successful. 

Taxes are just one part of the overall equation and certainly have to be taken into consideration, but I find plenty of deals here that meet my needs, profit and margin wise!

Without a deposit you fail to meet sufficient consideration for a bilateral contract.

If anyone has scheduled meetings or would like to schedule a meet up and see how we can work together, let me know.

Since there is a lot more in and out involved with a rental, I am looking for an efficient way of tweaking it to meet the following goals: 1) preferably not on a separate software program.

I look forward to meeting everyone here and learning today's market.Best Regards, Matthew Sparks

Call those brokers, invite them meet for coffee or pay for their lunch, tell them what you're looking for, build trust, follow up to stay top of mind.
