And fortunately for you, you bought at a discount during the time when the market was the lowest, therefore making the biggest gains.

You're goal is to use your small deposit to be able to go to a bank and get the biggest loan you possibly can.

I'm just curious as to what your biggest problem(s) is as someone who's just starting out in REI?

That would be incentive for them to pay on time rather than penalizing them for being late, and you don't have to collect the penalty if they are late.

The cost of the paint is almost never going to be the biggest issue.

Every building has for rent signs up, and a few are offering incentives.

Worst of all you aren't building any equity...which is one of the biggest benifits to home owning.I could be 100% wrong, I know I don't have all the details but in general its a fairly risky type loan.If you are absolutely certain about being out of the house in 3 years...an ARM might be a better option, as someone else suggested.

I always heard getting the first deal out the way is the hard part.my biggest holdback is fear.

What are some great incentives that work with these group of professionals?

The biggest building I currently have is a 6 unit.
