As for my personal situation, hotels in my area are now charging way more because there are simply less Air bnb for rent.

In my opinion,  it could be a good choice, depending on your situation.

@Luke Grogan What does the PSA you signed say about this situation?

I am also relatively new to the area, so I don't have a great feel for the local market.From what I can see, it appears to be highly competitive at the moment, and there aren't any turn key properties at my price point.For all the experience investors out there,If you found yourself in this situation, which strategy would you pursue?

Hey everyone i'm just wondering about ways i can get a mortgage loan for a property given my current situation. 

Anyone can find success in real estate anywhere, it just takes the right kind of person for the right kind of situation.

I guess ill open my question i sent to him to the public just in case someone has been in this same situation; Have you tried this yourself with the LA county Tax delinquent roll and the specific format it comes in?

Contact the co-signer and make him aware of the situation.  

I'm limiting my searches to duplexes for the time being, but once I get my own living situation figured out, I will hopefully start looking into private money investing.

@Sam Grooms we usually include a certain percentage for construction contingencies for these kinds of situations, but that’s certainly a case by case basis based on the severity of the repairs.
