I competed a pre approval application and selected primary residence and got the approval for my desired amount. 

In the suburbs of Dallas where there are lots of properties in desirable neigborhoods, it's almost impossible to find a proeperty that does not have an HOA.

He stated that although there is little he can do, he does notify the individual that unless he meets his obligations or at the very least the repairs, he will submit a 1099 for the tenant to the IRS and let the tenant deal with the IRS.Although I am not one to desire vengeance on someone who abandons leases, I certainly would not want to own many units in a complex and have a reputation as a pushover contractually.My question is a) has anyone ever heard of this or used it and b) if so, can someone explain how that could be argued as income worthy for a 1099?

Hello,I am a new investor and would sincerely appreciate any insight.So far my experience is finding buyers (online) for my family's timeshares.I have significant experience marketing online and, due to a well written ad, was able to secure a (well) above average price for their timeshares.In fact, in regards to one deal, a lesser unit (less desirable week and size) sold for $200 while I was able to get over $2,000 just a week later.My point is not to brag but to impress the fact that my strength is in the marketing.Although I do have experience in the book business and know how to find value and secure deals in such a way to ensure profit / up-side, I have no idea where to begin in finding similar RE deals (I realize there is a lot more to it than books ;)So my question is, where can one "fish" to lock investment properties / homes up at a price where there is still significant upside?
