It is the funding that I am lacking.I feel that I am in a stalemate and the only way to purchase my first rental property is to generate more income than I am right now to get to the point of being able to pay the downpayment.Thank you all for reading this post and I appreciate any responses and advice.

I hadn’t heard of the 2 year claiming deceased spouse rule a year ago when I made the original post. 

We offer full-service management for a flat, monthly fee ($130/unit), plus 10% on any maintenance costs.

I have a dinner this week with a seller, and I need to create confidence in them to agree to seller financing the deal.What tips should I consider for "selling" seller financing?

I recently posted here but I am currently under contract for a duplex in a rural area marked for development.There are 2 huge commercial real estate projects being built within the next couple of years (under construction).

Thank you for posting the same question!

We also can offer BPO options but only for experienced investors and only on short term loans (All 30 year loans need a full appraisal)

I did see a post where the landlord was fined $500, because no inspection was done as the tenant forgot and wasn't home to let the inspector in and the landlord was never notified.
