hello, I am coming up with answers for all the what ifs.

The answer to me is simply NO!

If you have questions let us know and we will steer you in the right direction, or answer them if possible.

To answer your questions.

Your question about will the "due on sale" clause get caught.The simple answer is no, probably not.

I got my first answer to my ad seeking houses on craigslist.

It's a pretty obvious answer, but I would check with your title company.

Probably an easy answer to an easy question, but - When I begin to call banks and inquire about their lending capability, would I begin my conversation by asking something along the lines of: "I'm an investor and am looking for an LTV based mortgage?"

I love your answers (especially about balancing a social life.....but yes, you do have to have fun when you are young.)I would learn everything I can about subject-to and lease options and you will quickly realize you don't need as much money as you thought.
