One other option that I used to do is look for alternative sources for the down payment or the money that I would ultimately end up leaving in the property (buying with HML or private money and then refinancing) Depending on your personal situation, this can accelerate your growth, but you have to be careful.

If you can suggest an alternative to a realtor who can do all of the above for potentially no money I am all ears!!

HAFA is a program that was rolled out to help create a base of treatments for loans that are alternative to foreclosure.

Still considering several properties/alternatives.

For example I've bought in Rosamond, CA and Dayton, OH, because the odds the AF will close down their major test base and their major acquisition hub are close to nil, but I'm really weighing my decision at the next base I'm slotted to go to, in Albuquerque, because that bases primary roles are directed energy (which is slowly being decommissioned), special operations, and the nuclear mission, of which neither of the latter two "Have" to be in ABQ, in fact, Spec Ops can easily move to Florida, and Nuclear could easily move to a number of other places.

It is indeed an interesting alternative but to too much do not agree

You gave me some good alternatives that I will definitely consider.

What's the alternative track to the path you've taken to get to where you are today (outside of obtaining your RE lic)?

Roy N.In comparing expenses between MFHs and SFHs, you're assuming that the alternative to buying 1 x four-unit is buying 4x SFHs....I don't think this is a valid assumption.

Would this be a viable alternative?
