Olivia Boardwine I'm actually working on obtaining mine I think it helps that your involved in the industry to help you understand the process better and it opens the door to potential networking opportunities.

May invite additional costs to obtain new tenants.

To both Leo and DeWitt, thanks for sharing.DeWitt, as Canadians, we are experiencing difficulty in obtaining financing.

Is obtaining business credit a good way to acquire property?

If you bought multiple properties from the same seller you could obtain a title policy for the total purchase price but covering multiple parcels.

To make the question more clear: Can I buy a property with 5+ units and only lease out 3 of them in order to obtain an owner-occupied FHA loan?

This knowledge can only be obtained through increasing your knowledge (reading, networking) and experience.

So I’m curious as to how I could obtain funding for my first deal fairly quick?

So I always offered an additional $100 per month as well as obtained a special renter's insurance policy with State Farm which specifically covered Pitbulls + $1m in damages including dog attacks etc. 

More importantly, obtaining a judgment in small claims court (should you ever want to do that) should be quite easy.
