@Bob Ross The factors that contribute to an investment being worthwhile or not are not as complex as people think.People complicate these factors in an attempt to delegate responsibility to non-emotional rationale and maintain loyalty to the "does it pencil?"

Attempting to collect enough from the option to where his option actually covers my acquisition cost (down payment & closing etc).

Decided that we would attempt to resale on MLS since we had our crews on other projects.

Are they attempting to use the father as an undercover co-signer and should I decline the application?

All of the regulation in place is an attempt to check rising rents, which should tell you how the market has been faring. 

In an attempt to do a good deed, we allowed our son's girlfriend's father to live in our rental home for 6 months rent free, with rent starting in month 7th (rent is only $300/mo). 

Always follow through on the paperwork but also attempt to find alternate solutions.

I haven't been bidding quite that much, but I've had a few failed attempts over the last few weeks as well.

I'd need burn lotion on my feet.

Hi Justin,My husband and I just attempted our first BRRRR in the Bozeman area.
