I'm looking to purchase a duplex or triplex in Galveston because the prices are in my budget compared to the Houston real estate.

The SDIRA is a dinosaur compared to the solo401k.  

That's a little over $6k in cash flow - Not a ton, but decent for something I have little money in.When my current renters decided to move out I thought now might be a good time to sell as from a demand perspective this house has always been on the low end compared to my other homes.

Some DUS lenders might want one of the guarantors to have previous experience with them in particular ... some are more stringent on comparing the strength of the new borrower against the current one.  

The bank technically owns it and their loan needs to be satisfied before the title can transfer. 

While I agree the property value in the area are comparable with the 100-120k value.

The cost of the office is trivial compared to a manager considered as your employee!

I agree though, if there is mold, the $300 is nothing compared to the remediation costs.Do you just always do a mold inspection no matter what?  

Single-hung usually next in line, then double-hung... casement/awning windows of comparable size are usually the most costly of the common window types.Be sure to pay attention to the egress needs - while a 2650 DH might meet egress, a 2650 casement may not (or it may need side pivot hardware).I could write a small novel on what to look for when buying windows... however, sleep beckons.

The problem is that the REI is going to be limited in both the number of refinances they can have at one time, and the total number of dollars they can have in loans at one time...and usually, the number of dollars is the bigger of the problems.The solution is credit partners, but the deal must have enough juice in it to satisfy all involved.
