Robert LaBrie You have all kinds of options.

The numbers look great on paper, but trying to manage that kind of volume requires hands on work and some know how.

They have to give it to you as w-2 income unless you were some kind of contractor they were paying.

The question is not whether we want to be that kind of society – we are that society unfortunately.

I assume there has to be a balloon payment of some kind, otherwise you would simply be calling owner financing lease/options?

It's not just dry RE Law books or books on surveying, but all kinds, likely they have some of the "investor" books (I know I saw some) as well as technical references.I was just thinking.....If you all, (enough people) would be interested I'll check them out from the BoR, read through them and give you a short version of recommendations, a synopsis, opinion but no endorsements as such.

For now I am financially stable with no debt of any kind and I don't own any property.

I would live in 1 of the quads initially but move out after 6-12 months or upgrades were completed (moving to new area and haven't purchased a home yet)I would use either VA loan / FHA 203k / FHA w 3.5% still figuring the right route but was trying to see if the numbers work.I am a pretty big noob at this so be kind >,<Here is a pic of my analysis http://i.imgur.com/1f4yeRB.jpg

What kind of marketing campaign would I use to target the buyers, not the sellers?

are you the kind of landlord that does nothing for the house/tenant?
