Hi everyone,My fiance and I have it as goal to start a podcast in 2019 and are working on gathering as much feedback and information from people to ensure we provide as much value as possible on our podcast when it does launch.

@Gustavo Gonzalez A lot depends on your personal goals.

My goal is to buy the property via lease option purchase and then resell it with a lease option purchase and cashflow while waiting for the new buyer to qualify for a loan.My concern is that the monthly payment could eventually exceed my cashflow.My original thought was that I set a fixed monthly rent amount in my lease purchase agreement with the seller, and anything above that is his responsibility.But my concern with that is what if he doesn't continue to pay the mortgage?
