I am looking for views from the professionals and non-professionals in the D.C. area on looming changes in the investment prospectives with the new Trump administration.

However, the cash on cash for the property is now over 20%, which is very tough to find in today's market.Once I've refinanced, the way I try to view it is by taking the amount I have in the property (ex. 25k) and subtracting closing costs of a few thousand (ex. 5k for simplicity), would I pay a multiple of 5 (20% down) for that property given current condition and rents?

After that, move to the middle income areas for a better balance of cash/wealth accumulation.My main concern is how the local housing authority would view D area rentals.

You don't have to do it daily, but try to group showings together/back to back etc. this creates competition when applicants see other applicants viewing the property.

I keep telling him "I am not an agent I cannot take him out to view properties or assist him in purchasing one".

I have no physical experience with the topic and am not providing any legal advice, simply offering my views on the issue.

After reading, watching many video and gaining a ton of point of views on investing, I came across this question....Can I legally enter into a "subject to" agreement with the owner while they have a property up for sale as a short sale or anytime during the foreclosure process?

I can't tell you how many I bought at the court house steps that would wave that worthless paper at me.I felt really bad for them.. the AG's put all those dirt bags out of business and from my point of view then went over board...
