And for what it’s worth, an HOA debt Is superior to a second mtg or other junior lien.

Hi BiggerPockets Nation,I am currently looking for my second buy and hold deal in the Hampton Roads, VA area and I am wondering if anyone has advice, leads, general information related to new construction in this area.

Hey fellow pocketers, so I’ve been pretty interested in buying my second investment property in my first year of investing, my first one has been quite successfully so far so I’m really feeling the pressure on property two.Anyway I’ve been looking at Milwaukee and I see that although their unemployment is at record low, they are doing some major construction to their downtown and although their population has grown slowly since 2010 last two years they’ve actually been dropping a little.

Second, im sure you can come to some sort of an arrangement with the investment company if you find a deal. where are you based?? 

The $96K will be plenty to get your second property.I would talk to a CPA and work through the tax ramifications.

This is the second time in the past month that a lender has asked me this.

According to the article, "The private component could bring $30 million to $40 million in investment for a first phase with more in a second phase..."

a simple e transfer gets them paid and being that it is a second job for them, their fee should be fairly cheap.If you have about 20k in cash on your own, i would look to secure another investor or solicit friends and family. 

First I am drawn to "Lease Option" investing and secondly "Buy & Hold".I joined BiggerPockets from a recommendation from www.olddawgsreinetwork.com.
