We have excellent credit and are looking at 15 yr fixed rate.  

I have 4 credit cards of $50k line each.

Furthermore, water rights are very expensive in the front range, and regardless of transportation improvements, you are still going to have to buy the rights and then build the infrastructure to pipe water into all that space we have to the East. 

(All this versus a heloc/line of credit, where one is not paying a monthly payment, unless the money is used, and then it can be paid back and used again over, right?

I've never used a personal mortgage for investment purposes, so my investor loans don't show on my personal credit report. 

@Tiffany S. well I have a mortgage already so I'm pretty sure that will count against it..but I'm looking to do section 8 housing so I guess for my first investment I would rather just deal with a turnkey unless there is a deal to good to pass on..should I give my credit union a shot?

Improve something, twice a year (During the shoulder periods). 

The seller assigns the leases to you, credit you for your part of the months rent, as well as the security from the tenant.

Their only punishment was damaged credit, but now enough time has passed that their credit is restored and they are ready to start the process all over again.

We probably put too much into improving the properties but I prefer to have a safe house to rent and one that can attract a better tenant, and so far we're 2 for 2.
