You can do this up to a four plex with a OO deposit of 3.5% to 5%.If you OO it to get the consumer deposit then as long as you stay a year you can move out and do the same thing with a new building and rent out the old building adding a new property every year.If you did this with good four plexes for 5 years you would have 20 units at the end of 5 years never putting more than 5% down.

All the cast iron has been replaced and all tubs, showers and toilets have new plumbing or are new.So far the tree has been cut down and the others trimmed.  

You as a consumer, realistically, have no way to directly evaluate most of that list above.

If you are in the business of making loans to primary residence consumers YOU, meaning you and your company, will need to be licensed in most, if not all states.  

I work for Chrysler as an electrician and while this job is better all around, for the most part, it consumes much more time than my last job did.

Most lenders try to squeeze every last dollar, which creates issues for the end consumer.  

These were created to protect the consumer - why - precisely because you do not have operational control.Having said this, the letter you received says "...unfortunately we have to evict YOUR tenant", meaning that now they are clearly drawing the line that even though they wouldn't let your input as it relates to tenant screening, they clearly consider the tenant YOUR problem.

I find it ironic that the house price has risen while the business that it serves has declined.
