The key is to evaluate the investment over some reasonable period of time to fully assess the value of the asset you are holding as opposed to alternative investments. 

W2 income is the best as it generally only needs some two months of history. 1099 income, on the other hand, requires at least years of steady / averaged income.While there are plenty of pitches about how to do real estate investing without cash/income, the bottom line is itsmuch better to have the income, than have to take those alternative/riskier/creative ways to go about it.Look at it another way: why do you think it’s so important for people to get approved for a mortgage?

Unbelievable deal...

I am working with a turnkey company as an alternative and when I asked why they leave these out of their calculations he responded that if you take all the costs into consideration you'll never find a deal. 

I’m looking for alternative solutions.

Alternatively, and in the meantime, you can operate as a joint venture, draft a JV agreement that states the LLC will operate the property in a joint venture with you and your partners. 

Wondering if I sell a house with a renter that's not paying rent, will the new owner be able to get them out without an eviction?

Same question for a lease option... 

Thanks! 

If it were possible to gain a majority in the association through the purpose, or if there was an alternative insurance that the association could never vote away my investment rights, then it might have been different, but coulda shoulda woulda, right?

If you try to do a/c, you might not be able to cool the home effectively at all, or the evaporator may freeze over because you don’t have the airflowSplits are nice alternative option, but remember they really don’t work well below freezing.

Compare the investment return (cash flow, principal reduction, appreciation) on your existing house with alternative investment options.
