I feel enlightened joining up here and starting the learning process via the Podcasts and reading up.I wanted to get the most basic of advise from you regarding financing.

Can someone enlighten me?

Since I am uneducated in lending processes outside the standard mortgage loans, please enlighten me and share how you might structure the finances for this opportunity.Cheers!

Apart from running business & studentship, i am even busy in dreaming about owning Real Estate's in USA & London.I don't know much about the investment strategies in real estate's, but would be very happy if someone enlighten's me.I ventured into entrepreneurship with a purpose of accumulating wealth for my future real estate investments.

After going through the forums, I have what i think is a relatively unique problem and I'm seeking out others who may have experience (and resolved) the same.My wife and I live apart, due to work.We both really like where she lives and works, but there's nothing there for my profession so I work away and I also make the vast majority of the money.Up pops a property in her town, we both really like it and both price and location are fantastic...BUT it's a Homepath property and I'm not sure about how the owner occupied certification is going to work out with my wife living there and me being away for the majority of the year with work.I have no issues receiving mail, homesteading, updating my license etc, but has anyone been in a similar situation and can maybe enlighten me on just what the Homepath definition of primary residence is?

If so, please enlighten me. 

Gentleman:Thank you for the very enlightening post.I didn't know what PITI was, and presume that the 2k mortgage is WITH PITI. 

I would have no surplus to reinvest back into the property for repairs and such.Could someone please enlighten me on this?

Please enlighten us as to how to purchase HUDs without an agent or being a agent ?

I found this article which I thought was interesting and may help enlighten some of us who are landlords and those who are looking to get into it.
