The seller was selling it as a three unit, but when we did the due diligence for our buyer we found the zoning issue and re-priced the offer.Assuming that it is ok zoning wise it may be hard to use the same units for college and vacation units unless you store the furnishings during the school year as the college students would most likely wear out the furnishings.Good Luck

Gheeee.....I'll look it up, but I don't think the 203(k) has re-opened for investors.

Others have said Gary Keller's Millionaire RE Investor is good, but I have not read that yet.

Thanks, I have printed out and plan on reading and re-reading this week end.Thanks so much....it looks like this is under the radar for some reason.

Just please don't feel like you have to spend thousands of dollars on some guru course to begin.haha yeah that what i was thinking of buying a "course" online that comes with like 12 audio cd for like 40 bucks i doubt i would ever pay anything over 1k on a RE course i rather read books , listen to tapes, and go on bigger pockets.

In addition, if I was a newbie investor, and read Mike's posts and blog, I would be scared stiff to become a RE investor.

But what do I know, I haven't taken any RE courses, they could teach me much more than I could learn from my RE books and CCIM courses.The Finance degree sounds interesting for understanding how finance works.

Is this right by the way, or what is the least that people are getting away with as earnest money without RE agent?

There is so much opportunity in the RE market.

All I have to say is he's commenting on everyones stuff and he himself has not actively invested in RE in almost 30 years.
