The income will help you qualify for the loans you'll need together your business off the ground.

Definitely an option to patrol the grounds at night, until they just go away.

I inquired about a mixed use commercial property in Northern New Jersey with four apartments, a loft office space, and a Pizza Hut occupying the ground floor. 2.

The mailman would get upset about un-stamped mail showing up in the mailbox and would throw them on the ground. 

Is the conventional loan option comparable or better then FHA?

Wow, prices are so low compared to where I am from, for a duplex.I am in the process of getting my first duplex as well (closing is in 2 weeks).

@Kerri JunioYou need to do the analysis on the property.What a person owes on the mortgage has zero to do with the value of the property.You need to look at the comparative sales in the area.

I want to be an active part of the boots on the ground team until I know that I am working with the right people.

Hello, maybe someone can make this more clear for me. I used to think that as long as the interest rate of an mortgage is less than the cap rate of the investment, the investor is guaranteed to make positive cash flow...

Theoretically it is possible to find a market or condo complex where you can't cash flow, even with no debt, but that is probably rare.Generally, compared to other forms of residential real estate, condos are not a good investment.
