You could message privately if you prefer.

If not, find some private lenders in your area...or area REIA meetings.

More specifically, I'm trying to see if I can properly leverage a new Coverdell ESA IRA for each of my 3 children ($6000 per year) and use a 100% return as distributions for a private school within the next 4 years.BTW, Thanks again for the explanations!

David StoneElma, WATHE NUMBERS: Our purchase price in 2009:  $155,000Currently owe:  $136,000Mortgage:  $1080 / mo (PITI)Rent:  $1000 ($100 above median, but house is newer condition than neighborhood), Tenant pays all utilitiesProperty:  3 bed, 2.5 bath, 1576 sq ft, built 2008, located just outside Shelton, WAFair market value:  $166,000 according to Zillow private estimate of comps I am looking to make a minimum of $35,000 from the sale of the property to make it worth itBACKGROUND:This certain property was not originally purchased for a rental.
