A Guide to Modeling and Overcoming Analysis ParalysisI am a numbers person by nature and often consider excel to my second home for my 9 to 5 job and so I can relate to those who find themselves wanting to exhaustivel...

I want to partner up with someone bankable, I myself don’t qualify for a loan at the moment.

Since i do have plumbing skills, and the ability to fix other things up, the fixing up stage will be fun and easy for me.anyone who is interested let me know!

I would only go this route if you can't qualify for a regular conventional mortgage or if you don't have someone you can privately lend from.

@Jason FosterYou open yourself to more options if you are comfortable working with an accountant remotely.There are many qualified accountants/CPA's on this messageboard.

to answer your question - yes the 3,000 is on my tax return, but only for one year.thanks for the Co-borrower game plan - didn't think of that one, although the only person I can think of doesn't make enough money to qualify for a roll of toilet paper Hopefully there are other loans besides conventional that I can explore 

@Robert Leonard of course purchase residential as a 4 unit, you can still add the 5th unit and keep residential, it would be an “illegal” 5 units but buyer can still get a residential loan, only that can’t use the 5th rental for income qualifying purposes.

So you have "qualified=yes" FTHBs that can't buy a home because no one wants to invest the time...

I am trying to plan my next purchase, but what is most holding me back, is that i am on commission, and cannot qualify for much as my 2 year mark (when commission is lend-able on) is not until OCT. 2019.

Will I need to qualify for the loan in order to be a part of the trust and have the house under the trust?
