My experience is that the tenant/buyer's Lender will not necessarily have a problem with it, but you must disclose to them the nature of the transaction: that you are buying the property and selling it shortly thereafter for a profit.

My questions here are general in nature as this potential deal hasn't progressed far enough for me to pull additional information.

While it does sound like a scam, I do know that insurance companies look for places to rent temporarily for customers who need housing after natural disasters.

And nowhere in the formula does it account for appreciation either forced or natural occurring.However, I strongly disagree with the look at 100 properties to buy one property.I don't want to waste my time looking at 100 properties to buy one.

I would keep the cost incorporated in order to account for it if you later decide it is too much for you to do on your own. 2) Just a tip, check with the city planner's office to see if any future plan is going to interupt the flow of business, i.e. major road construction, new zoning laws, new construction.Good luck,Dave

Brandon Turner -have you thought about incorporating a few search terms into the initial sign up page - might be easier then retyping that everytime someone new joins

Myself, coming from an carpenter/metal working background, also like some of the more "new school" construction w/ exposed timbers and black iron bracketry, especially w/ wrought iron stairs, rails, and natural stone.

They are being relocated from out of state by a Fortune 500 company (where they both work) and are in corporate housing for the time being.

Patch of Land’s execs have written detailed responses to numerous questions about properties and risks and are incorporating the feedback into Q&A.

Especially considering the dynamic and organic nature of these types of markets...
