In fact, I’m on the mailing list of a few local brokers and get their offerings almost every day.You are not competing with the giant mega-hard money lenders here, who lately bundle and sell their loans to Wall Street.

Besides I have an umbrella policy and probably do not need it, but it does not hurt or add any additional tax fees.I am not able to put any more into a retirement account because my 401K is already maxed out to include the catch-up.

I also give a move in gift and that's about it.My move in gift is usually a new door mat, a basket of fruits, a set of scented candles, female tenants get a dozen of giant sunflowers by the window.

We used a hard money lender and were not able to sell within our allotted time frame.

I've seen guys miss a single line items costing in the hundreds of thousands of dollars on large commercial construction projects and they were not able to walk away.

In this scenario, I must state that I'm not able to offer any tax, legal or investment advice.

Are you not able to send me a message?

If for any reason you were not able to perform on the note for more than 60 days or 90 days he could get the deeds back w/o going the foreclosure route.  

My dad is currently going through their process so I can check the giant booklet he has and see what info could be useful to post :).

They have 4 numbers stamped on the key.I use a battery powered rotary engraver to scribe the 4 digit number on each deadbolt and knob.Takes me 5 min to swap out the locks on a door.Put the used sets in a ziplock bag and rotate.I have a document in my Evernote account that has a system for letting me know which key goes to which house(not full address: not giving full details online Ha) and corresponding 4 digit key number.Even without that, I can walk up to any one of my houses, and find the correct key which are in numerical order on my giant key ring.Yes, I  keep my key ring locked up.
