Planning is half the battle, so you are well on your way!

Usually someone else's funds would have to be in your account for a period of time of partner B would have to add you to their bank account and then the lender might only accept half of what is in there towards your funds.

They say that they have that worked out now but I'm going to look at it again to see if they have some repairs half done.

My advice would be to do this then buy a duplex live in half rent half and you will be able to finance your deals and not have to move every year 

I was looking to buy an investment property for the last year and half and can tell you it was very difficult to find a ready to rent property in ok neighborhood with 1% and up rent/price ratio.

So, for approximately one and a half years, the property has been vacant.I tracked down the previous (or current?)

Now for $60k I am buying into half of all rents and equity position.  

They signed a one year lease and are moving at the end of this month, breaking the lease nine and a half months early. 

I cut the standard 10% that I’ve observed on BP in half due to that fact.

He is currently a level III Maintenance Technician at a large property management company and I was an Office Mgr. for a construction company for 4 and a half years (I currently own a fine art photography prints business.)
