i assume you're single - KEEP IT THAT WAY for a few years.buying a personal home low and fixing and selling (in my opinion) is a great way to start out.it makes financial sense and is low risk asset protection wise...u buy in your name - get a 10 year arm - some nice interest only loan for 10 YEARS (see a mortgage broker) and be out of there in just over 2 years...if you can't sell it right away - you've got 8 years to move it.make renovations nice and stream-lined.

Online or at least over the phone creditcard payment and a streamlined, "hotel-like" check in process are necessary.

This will help stream line your life and your business.

I am just trying to stream line my business as much as i can so i make as much money as possible without cheating my customers or doing something illegal.

hello Patriot,I am looking into streamlining my business of REO as well.

It has dozens of other great features which I won't get into here, but you'll see what I mean if you decide to pull the trigger.The main thing is to have a central database for all of your buyers/sellers/contractors/attorneys/realtors and so forth, so you can streamline your work flow.For my main website, I use the Wordpress blog platform with Optimize Press.

I only manage a small amount of properties but I've been experimenting with online payments for some of my tenants to streamline the monthly payment process.

I recently offered on a Freddie Mac foreclosure for my personal residence using the 203k streamline financing.

That is the key to stream lining this industry.

The lease options do take a lot of time, which is why I moved on to make bigger chunks of money with less time on my end, but if I can streamline it with a VA, it may be worth getting back into.
