I had started a business over a decade ago, soon after I was in a bad car accident that took me over 3 years to recouperate from.

It's similar to a car loan in that regard.That's why so many people are successful doing "Lonnie" deals.What kind of MH are you considering?

My dad works more on the developing end because he owns a civil engineering and land surveying company which is a great resource for me.Also, I have a friend that I've known for most of my life who retired (from "having" to work everyday) when he was 33.

I am a computer engineer (Chip Design), I retired in 2000 after the company I worked for, completed a successful IPO.

It was like being in a car in the sky.My wife and I recently watched the movie "Vitus", , great movie by the way,.... for all ages.

Cars and college – let alone big screen TV’s — virtually require you to have loans.

looked at property today that was described in my previous thread...terrible, crooked floors...no hardwood...no parking...needs more than a clean up...actually looked a 3 today...and found another more expensive 270K asking price 3 decker...this one is move in condition in B maybe B+ shape...my cash flow estimates are around 1700 for this property...has everything that i need for investment (deleaded, parking, 2 car garage, 3 bedrooms, good n'hood)...this one sold 2 yrs ago for 480K (unreal)and my location is boston...the city is north of boston

I have no car and very low expenses so my money builds up pretty quickly, but the work days are long and grueling.I am currently considering Orlando FL for my first investment property.

I assume he was asking more about SFR's than bigger MF's.Also this is the same bank that my entire family has gotten personal mortgages, car loans, etc through for the past 20-30 years.

I had $47k of student loan debt from a pretty worthless MBA, $13k credit card debt due to car repairs, medical expenses from a car wreck, basically my life was a mess.
