Just to many other houses out their that I dont need to risk getting involved in a sub 2 deal.

The months when there are big problems that involve 10+ hours of work and eats up 3 months of cash flow so you lost $1,000 over the PITI payment while working a lot it will seem to really suck!

If everyone involved is an adult, that's the best way.

All investing requires money.People will try to sell you their programs to teach you how to invest with no money.

Tons of programs out there you have to dial for dollars until you find funding that makes sense at an interest rate where you can put the capital to use at a higher rate than what you are paying out.

I started my interest in real estate like some people with the flipping shows and different HGTV programs and have always had an interest since then.

HOA boards can be really bad and there isn't much an owner can do about it unless all the homeowners are closely involved.

T-Value was an old program that was free, it might still be around. 

A straight lease-option can probably be done, as to doing it legally, it depends on which L/O deal you're involved in, what your position might be.

Would a lawyer be involved?
