That's even more important than loan ability.

All lenders have a right to agree to extend financing arrangements with any borrower or buyer, they have the right to approve the party's ability to pay, credit, equity and any other aspect of risks involved.  

I love tenant situations so I do it myself and make more money for that ability.

That, and/or ask specifically what tax ramification there might be from Joe buying or Bob.Problem with wholesaling is that you're walking a thin line to begin with, when backed up in confrontation you may be limited as to your ability to play hard ball, do you really want to go to court?

Walk-ability, housing stock architecture, very dense and popular, foodie culture, close to downtown, and more.Only word of caution is, with the high price points comes somewhat high taxes, try to stay under $160,000.

I price low, to attract multiple bidders and if the highest price has no earnest money, I'll probably sell to the next person.The earnest money serves a practical purpose of compensating the seller for lost time and marketing ability if the buyer bails out because the buyer found a more attractive property.

The piece I can contribute to the vast REI puzzle is my ability to find, negotiate, structure, and be creative.

You seem like a nice enough guy and I don't know the facts behind your investment decisions, but my ability to obtain great financing has been adversely affected by the ill-advised actions of others.

Wifey will vouch that she'll KILL me if I add blue pills to my current abilities......Nick- I understand after seeing yours!

My reasons for selecting Springdale and Rogers are as follows: Ability to obtain 1% rule, good school districts in general, low crime rate, stable tenant base (Wal-Mart and Tyson), potential for appreciation as Fayetteville has seen substantial growth, and lastly I know a few people who live there and love it.If anybody else is familiar with or in investing in the Springdale or Rogers areas, I would consider partnering and going in on a larger enterprise.
