With such a short notice it is a big hassle to arrange the painter and short notice to the tenants.

I've been working part-time since I was 15 and I realize every time I had to stop working due to exams I would fall short on money.

Once renovated they are more attractive as buy and hold investments, but they also can be partitioned into two single family homes, which have higher comparable sales in these locations.

Can you guys kindly refer a trust worthy home inspector that can come out to work on relatively short notice?

I am 90% satisfied with their platform however the 10% dissatisfaction may increase shortly as they currently have 2 of my loans in default...actually only 1 in default/foreclosure and the other one is just very LATE!

I have learned so much already in the short time I've been a member.

HML do not typically like to lend past 12 months,  It is a short term loan to get in and get out.Also, when you said "I have the funds to purchase" does that mean you are paying cash or getting a loan?  

The answer to your question depends on many variables, primarily the quality of property you're investing in and the quality of tenants you're able to attract with these properties.  

You should also check out some local real estate investor groups such as Black Diamond REI in MA and the RI Real Estate Investor Group in RI.If you have some specific questions feel free to post them, you'll probably get several answers in short order :)

They could short-sell, but that would only make sense if the payments are too much.
