It is also the easiest way to finance a home, as you can buy your first property, owner occupied with only 3.5% down FHA loan.

I am also interested in which contract would be the easiest to use.

Hey Everyone,Was wondering you guys use as the easiest way and most convenient way to receive rent from tenants?

Get your elevator speech together then go listen to this podcast and focus on the part about action...http://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2014/04/10/bp-podcast-065-creative-investing-wendell-de-guzman/Finally...read this...http://www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2014/06/03/raise-money-deals-simple-advice/Your family is your biggest and easiest source of funding!

Another cool tip with FHA is that if your agent is you (representing yourself) or a family member you can contribute/gift the real estate commission as part of your down payment so this would help jump start  your equity in the property and or lower your loan to value so you'll be ever closer to that 75% LTV mark to refinance.Structured correctly your FHA loan could jump start your financial freedom track, good luck.

If you're doorknocking on a regular basis, your people skills should be improving to the point where you'll get the gift of gab and you'll figure out how you need to talk to people.
