I found my vehicle to get to where I want to be.

For most traditional banks, they'll want to see 3 years of tax returns, personal financial statements, P&Ls, and additional support (such as marketable investments, collateral, and/or liquid funds) that will show that you're able to support your responsibilities and repay all debt, but specifically theirs.

So what's the best way to handle this...do you bring a bunch of Cashier's Checks made out to different amounts or once your bid is accepted do you go to the nearest  bank for a check in the specific amount?

I blame myself on not being specific.

I know this question has been asked before, but I'm hoping to get specifics on how I can compare numbers between 1.) purchasing a primary residence VS 2.) saving for my next buy & hold investment.Background:  I live near the beach in Los Angeles.

Specifically with FTP files in the Broward County area ( South Florida ) regarding Official Records of Real Estate transactions.  

Or is that maybe a Florida or your county specific kind of thing?

I trust most active landlords have heard of the April 4, 2016 "Office of General Counsel Guidance on Application of Fair Housing Act Standards to the Use of Criminal Records by Providers of Housing and Real Estate-Related Transactions" For those of you who have read the guidance, what "policies and practices" have you put in place for specific prior criminal behavior?

I am a tad late to this conversation but as an experienced investor, I wanted to touch on several comments in this thread, I will do my best to remember them all.Build your team first (of course this comes after educating yourself on the specific strategy you intend to do with books, BP, mentor, RE group meet ups, etc).

Is it because you've heard it's a good thing to do or because you have a specific reason?
