REOs always have an inspection period, so if you do get an acceptance and the house is much worse than you expected, adjust your offer.Houses that only need a little lipstick are going to be harder to buy than ones that needs something more significant.

Financing deals through several investors is basically a banking operation and if you have an investor who squeaks really loud you can have the state banking authority knocking on your door.What I'm saying is that there is no 100% safe way that avoids all banking and security issues regardless of what an attorney might tell you, after all, the attorney has an on going opportunity representing you as issues arise.The way to put such a lender group together is to obtain contractual loan agreements with your investors, as a loan committment, to make future loans available within a short period of time.Usually obtaing short term financing for long term obligations is a good formula for failure.

The question of whether the PITIA of the rental property gets added into your monthly expense for the DTI formula or not depends on whether the rental property is owner occupied (house hack) or if its truely a rental property from the stand point that it shows up as a rental on the tax returns.If its a non owner property the rental income gets "netted," against the monthly expense or PITIA so only the net income or loss is counted.If the property is an owner occupied 2-4 unit property where the owner lives in one and rents the rest then yes the full PITIA gets added to your monthly expense and the income is added to your monthly income as well which is completely different calculation than "netting," income and expenses then using the "net," income from a non owner/investment property scenario.

One of those items is a contingency period.

As a result of the protection afforded by the corporate structure, the individuals who are truly negligent would often be left off the hook and the liability for the wrongdoing would rest solely with the corporation itself.Due to the hard work and diligence of the lead poisoning lawyers at Levy Phillips and Konigsberg, LLP, case law precedent has now been established in New York State to hold not only the corporation, but the people who run and are acting on behalf of the corporation responsible for their individual negligence.http://www.lpklaw.com/new-york-lead-poisoning-lawyers.phpDoes that help?

At this rate, the walls should outlast the rest of the structure!

Im thinking of putting maybe half of it in stocks and other half in real estate.In bangkok, a newly built mid-end condo, with modern facilities, carparks,for a 1 bed, 40 sqm in good location, fairly near sky train and fully furnished is maybe around 3m-4m baht. agency says i cud get around 22k-25k baht a month but im guessing its prob more like 15k-20k baht. most Thai wages will not be able to afford the rent, but its ideal for expats working in bkk. so the return is maybe around 6% before all costs, vacancy periods and appreciation/depreciation.ive been reading a lot of negative and pessimistic views about condo as a buy-to-let especially in bkk. there r so many condos in bkk and many being built as land is not scarce yet cos old buildings can be cleared and new projects started easy. and other factors i dont know. also traffic is a nightmare and the condos that are centrally located (and most expensive) have one of the worst traffics (altho it wud prob be near sky train or underground which would be ok for expats.keep in mind that i ll be paying in lump sum, wouldnt mind to gain some real estate exposure (im fairly interested in the industry),do you think its worth it to buy a condo in bkk as a buy-to-let?

Technically they are in the grace period right now for Nov. rent.

5) What if the project is some type of value-added project that doesn't generate cash-flow in early period(s), does the preferred return accumulate until there is enough cash-flow to pay all preferred returns?

Adding a second bedroom and bath (even if it is part of the basement finish out and not an addition) as well as new countertops in the kitchen will likely require new paint and flooring throughout the rest of the house.
