I know that Zillow and Trulia can do this on an individual basis, but I'm looking more for statistics.

@Jermaine Riggs   Remember the 6PsPrior Planning Prevents P*ssPoor Performance There are steps that you can be taking today that will better ensure you will be able to qualify for the best of terms on your purchase in TX.1. have a Mortgage Broker run a Tri-Merged MORTGAGE credit report and pay the extra $15 for them to also run the "What If" score increase simulator to know how best to pay down debt in the interim2. start eating MREs and saving like a maniac until you close as the more money you can show in reserves Post-Closing, the better the programs you can qualify for.etc,etc,etc,   

We hold the property in our individual names. 

Lately a lot of folks have joined the game and started sending out other wholesalers properties with an extra fee attached. 

I'm really thinking of adding these to the mix because hey, 16 extra units would get me right at my freedom number after my partners 50/50 split.

I have yet to earn some extra money to get started in real estate, so in the meantime, what books do you recommend a novice like me to read?

It looks like property owners are reducing their sales price because they are "building" in that extra cash outflow that the new owner will have to pay to vacate the current units.

Would you take a little extra risk for having a FNMA type 30 year residential style loan? 

Before this business he would buy wrecked Yamaha R6 motorcycles and disassemble them in his garage, selling every single piece, part, nut and bolt that wasn't damaged, individually at swap meets and online. 

I would then have to apply for commercial loan.Is this deal worth the extra effort?
