Bear with me and entertain with me on this one.  

Price of the property has no bearing on the percentage you have to put down it's based on number of units. 

Bear with me.A 3/2 single wide built in the mid 80s- 14 x 70 that needs no work.

Experience in the investment space has no bearing on traditional financing.

I understand it's what the market bears but I don't see the "investors" paying 80% being around long so maybe maybe the market will level out when people stop paying those prices.Until then I'll just have to find the deals myself but that is the time consuming part I would gladly pay a wholesaler to do if they could do it without charging market prices.

I couldn't bear to be dependent on I35W north of Fort Worth as my major highway, but there are plenty of jobs up that way, and it's continuing to grow.

This is my first night on here and I have been skimming threads like a sponge to try to get some bearings on where to start.I was born in Ponce Puerto Rico and moved to Reading Pa when I was 3.

if you do have a lease for 20 months, then you have to grin and bear it unless they violate one of its terms or fail to pay.   

the first deal is a bear.

Also bear in mind that I believe you can not bid owner occupant on another Fannie/HUD for two years, so make this one count!
