Did this ever go out?

Remember the name of the game is never pay for anything out of your own pocket, so ever expect them to pay you out of their pocket.

I've been told and since researched it: FHA loans CANNOT have PMI removed, ever.

Now the builder sold me theses properties at a discount....But, I’ve been planning and designing and scoping for lots (I've put some work into this), got the plans....about to put the contract on the lot, price of lot is where I want it, appraisal for the plans is where I want it, financing is the best I've ever seen, Taxes in area are low.....and I've been taking a look a costs of materials....now, I'm working hard to work under budget like hell....and after the property is built I have accumulated some liquidity to suffice for a short time as reserves to retire the debt before I sell the house.

My agent wouldn't ever write landlord policies unless there was a tenant already in place.

Obviously homes that get sold like this are going to need work, but has anyone else ever tried buying / rehabbing one of these homes?

JAB - did you ever find the partner you needed in Texas to help you out?

Have you ever thought about purchasing properties to either flip or for rental income?

Pretend this is the most important term paper you've ever written for your most demanding college professor.

People have the right to second guess you, especially since you're in charge of their largest investment.
