If you double close, (personally close on the A-B side, then subsequently sell to C in a separate transaction) then you may be required to pay your broker some form of commission split (again, depending on your contract) The rationale is simple.  

Could that be a double edged sword if I have to file an eviction?

For simplicity, I would suggest using the BP deal analysis tool unless you have something else built to help you understand what numbers you NEED to look at before you KNOW you have a good deal.I will say that initially the numbers that you provided do have potential, but without the rest of the picture It's hard to say.  

Many passive RE investors, hard money lenders, and note buyers seem to be happy with low double digit rates of return, thinking that, relative to stocks, bonds, mutual funds and annuities, mid-teens is a respectable yield.  

I work with investors, and they put up the resources, I put in all the work, do awesome things to help people learn real estate that apparently I can't post about here, etc.Some flips(you'll have to PM me for sources, BP won't allow me to put up the pictures b/c they're on a meetup page.

These articles are very subjective and often times don’t represent the complete picture.

I just started this and don't have a profile picture up yet. 

However, she hasn't lived in the house in 10 years and it is probably just a shell at this point (we are getting someone to go and take pictures of the property this weekend since we live out of state).

You buy a $100k house that has cap rate of 10%, so $10k cash flow.Since you adjust 3% per year for inflation, after 15 years your income is doubled to $20k, yet the asset price is still only $100K, so now you have a cap rate of 20%.

I'm not sure you are considering factors such as, off the top of my head: 1) unlike the have-a-pulse-get-a-loan scenarios of yesterday, they are required to have proper debt-to-income ratios and meet reserve requirements so as long as they don't lose their job for an extended period, they've proven they can afford the payment; 2) even in a down market, they will have to live somewhere, so unless rents are much cheaper, which is unlikely, it makes more sense to not ruin their credit, keep paying and stay where they are, especially if they've improved the property at all; 3) these loans are much more likely to be 30-year-fixed, not the ARMs of yesterday that adjusted up to a surprisingly unreasonable payment (many didn't understand what they signed up for until, Wham, the payment doubled on them, so they had to walk); 4) they pay MIP, upfront and monthly, so there is some protection for the lender if they do default.Many of these people would be stuck paying much higher rents, building others' equity instead of building their own, without FHA loans.
