Hello bigger pocketsI just bought a duplex in Detroit Michigan and I would like to tile floor.

You only need to put 3.5% down, so cashwise it won't get in the way of other real estate goals you may have.My first deal was a 4-unit up I bought withFHA3.5% in Santa Clarita.I lived for free (as opposed to paying rent) + enjoyed cash flow + built equity.

I doubt the seller has underlying financing because of the low dollar amount of the transaction, but if he does, a wrap note/deed of trust is possible.CFD is disfavored for a couple of reasons, but can work here *because* you are not a consumer - bought for personal use. 

I bought a home (not rental) in 2012 (my first ever property) and lived there for 2 yrs before converting into a rental.

I bought a 3-unit residential property and met with a local contractor (insured, bonded, good references) to discuss doing the renovation of all 3 units for me.

I bought a condo back in 2009 for $100k even (20% down conventional) as an investment and I stopped paying HOA dues about 2 years ago.

I haven't bought anything from it yet but I've met some terrific people and seen some opportunity.I don't know why my @function isn't working but you can find JJ by searching him here and the the Dealmaker's is usually posted in events.

I wanted to go to school in Oregon (Go beavs) so my gf and I moved up and bought a house in 2015.

There are blocks that are gold mines; while there are other blocks that are terrible investments.

I bought most of the furniture from one estate sale.
