Interesting he had applicants bidding the rent they were willing to pay up 'several hundred dollars' from his asking 'price'.      

Driving for dollars!

Almost nobody talks about the fact that day one for every dollar of your match you are getting a 100% return on your money, and that is before even one day of compounding at 7-10% (long term averages) that the stock market can give you.

I've spent 10s of thousands of dollars with PropStream and I can't seem to get any support on questions outside of their basic how to's.

Sold it for top dollar with multiple offers in the 1st week.

Does the private lender cash out with a guaranteed return on their initial down payment (percentage or dollar amount) once there is enough equity in the property?

So my question is, I have about 100k in school loans, should I save every dollar I can to put towards down payment and renovations (just do minimum payments for loan) for when I get to Arizona and buy house...or should I look into what the market is, how much the house will be, and kind of budget a way of saving just enough to have x$ for renovations and nonpayment and try to cut down on my loans as much as possible. 

You can drive for dollars.

Over a certain dollar figure usually needs owner approval.

Your costs will be high and unless the property is renting for a very high dollar amount, the return could be poor.
