to get a general idea of the inside of the home before I make the hour trip to view it.

It would seem you're eager, but that eagerness can lead to emotional decisions about a property and you'll end up down the wrong road if you jump on the first MFH that has a gorgeous view or was just recently updated inside.  

I am a commercial real estate agent in the Miami area with over $25 million worth of listings.

Weigh the refinance cost Vs the additional amount that you can cash out so that you can decide if it is worth proceeding or not...Also do note the change in the monthly payment with this new loan...

I'm less inclined to take up wholesaling simply because it would take more time and a larger volume of deals to make it worth it. 

I'd hate to end up losing the case for some negligence on my part.Is there a certain dollar amount when it becomes worth it to sue the tenant?

@Cameron York  any reason you don't want to simply buy performing notes and skip all the brain drain and associated risk and time it takes to do the NPN.from my personal point of view the only reason someone would do NPN is if the had a lot of money and time... because some will be winners and many like talked about up front will be 100% losers.so you need to income average as it were and that takes volume.wereas performing notes done correctly have less than a 5 to 6% default rate and you can make pretty nice returns and sleep well.. and not waste all the time and drama on the NPN side of things.If your going to the Portland BP meetup next Tuesday I will be there we can discuss a little more if you like...

RBC - and perhaps briefly TD - are/were the only two of the Big 5 who were underwriting 5 & 6 unit properties as residential as opposed to commercial.Additionally, RBC will lend to the point where you have five mortgages (including your personal residence), so use them early in your property acquisition plan and strategically if you find a 5 or 6 unit worth acquiring.

Hello,I am looking at a fourplex in fort worth Texas. 2 of the tenants are on section 8 and are paying rents much lower than the surrounding area.
