Before calling the loan officers and setting up an appointment, go to their website and search locations, start with the bank that has the fewest  branch locations.

Personally I see no point in doing deals that don't come out positive-and not just marginal either.

There website is HEREThanks!

If you find and cultivate relationships with real estate attorneys or title companies, and you position yourself as a credible buyer (I will post how you do this even if you're a newbie in a separate post), they might refer you deals you will never find otherwise. 

Glad you joined the best real estate investing website!

Maybe something to pass on After I just found this info on area vibes website

They will not take second position on a home (must the the first and probably only lien).

With that in mind, you should expand your search to get you to the best financial position possible.

Plus, the area I found this property in is not always the best area crime rate around the street is high according to realtor website.

But I believe that "strong appreciation also comes strong rent growth" and therefore makes the property eventually positively cash flowing.
