I regularly attend the INREIA meetings and they're fairly decent but I'm looking to expand and meet other people that may not be in the REIA meetings and have us all network! 

They should certainly stand out against the regular envelopes. 

Well, that's my introduction and I look forward to interacting with positive, like minded professionals here at BiggerPockets.Sincerely, Christal B

I've already learned so much from the BP forums and I'm now looking forward to interacting and contributing to this great community!

My question is, are foreclosures treated differently as far as calculations are involved than regular properties?

some condos are pet-friendly, but they do have a limit, and are often more restrictive than the regular local ordinances for sure.I am also a big fan of the owner occupied duplex as a way to get started. 

We've also used Allure (regular) in rentals and another similar product from Sam's Club.

I have bought places which need work - and there is generally a deal to be made there because they won't qualify for a regular mortgage as is.
