For the sellers credit limitation, it sounds like that might not work well for me if my lender follows similar guidelines...

I have seen those type of minor changes before in my friend's contracts and they were not being challenged.

@Kevin BBest advice: Call the city's code enforcement:https://www.chandleraz.gov/residents/neighborhood-resources/neighborhood-services/code-enforcementJust say that you had a "family" or group of friends apply to lease your home, but they all seem to be unrelated.

A friend of mentioned Florence, Alabama and I became interested in the area especially after reading David Greene’s book Long Distance Real Estate Investing and finding out that there are deals that can be made there.

Maybe see if you can make friends with a general contractor through your local real estate investment group who will walk through it with you and help you price out the expensive stuff like roof and foundation.

Hey everyone, looking for investor friendly title companies in the LI Ny area.

Hello BP Friends,I’m currently finishing my real estate course once finished I’ll take the state test.

Fantastic job my friend! 

Reason being is that I will be in school for the next 2-3 years(10-20K rent), I can add value/fix the house while I'm living in it, instead of paying rent I can rent out the other 3 rooms to my friends at school (mortgage payments/free living/profit?)

Also I'm going to link to some friends and folks that I know might be able to be helpful:@Jay Hinrichs because I know he knows about timber and what it might be worth.
