We needed to buy houses that didn't require much if any work, and our agent put us in touch with a lender, inspector, property management firm.

I wanted to gain some prospective on how to eliminate vacancy even while experience tenant turn over.

Then, call your lenders and ask if they wouldn't mind looking a prospective deal.

I am just concerned if it would show up when a prospective employer searches and that could negatively affect any prospects.

For my auction.com purchase they used some half-baked closing firm out of Pittsburgh with real crummy customer service.

I'm in a similar "boat" to you - pretty much just getting started and a bit nervy although also excited about the future prospects.

The seller was at the showing and the agent warned me ahead that he was $90,000 FIRM it is what he needed (he bought it at an estate sale), and was flipping.

Our firm hopes to make a small dent in this problem by acquiring mobile home parks that have meaningful vacancy and infilling new homes for families that desperately need respectable, clean shelter at a price point they can afford.

We offer one time specials to help entice prospective residents to live with us.

If you have IRAs, or have been laid off by some firm and have an old 401K floating around, you can become your own SBA.The SBA seems to dislike start-ups, and concentrates solely on expansion.
