How do investors handle real estate ownership with multiple mortgages?
Posted by admin in Renting & Real Estate on January 3, 2010
I own a couple of fourplexes in Los Angeles. I want to purchase more (another this year while prices are slashed, maybe one more next year), but I know it affects my credit to have a lot of mortgages under my name. But I’m sure the banks who hold the mortgages won’t be ok with me just transferring them out of my name (and off of my credit report), especially now. How do small RE investors handle this problem? How do they get the mortgage liability off of their personal credit?

Good/Bad Credit and Discover Card?
I work at Sam’s Club and I applied for the Sam’s Discover Card today. I didn’t get approved, but I did get approved for the Sam’s personal credit (up to 300 dollars). I’m only 20 so I don’t have a lot of credit experience under my belt, but I was wondering why I got downgraded.
I have bounced my debit card a couple of times, and I got a letter from the bank about it. The letter said that if I did not pay soon, they would turn it in to the credit beaureau. I paid it back so I’m assuming that they didn’t have to turn it in.
I have a student loan that I took out in August from the US beaureau of education for 1700 dollars. I haven’t started paying it back yet, but the only credit report I am able to view online says that it is in good standing, and that I have 0 potentially bad accounts.
Why did I get denied? What is it that Discover is looking for? How do I know if I have good or bad credit?

How do I get a valid 30-day late removed from my credit report?
My FICO scores for 3 bureaus run from 740-755, which is not bad. However, I have a 30-day late from a department store credit card from about a year and a half ago that I’d like removed. I know how to go to credit bureaus to ask them to remove this if it is a mistake by the credit provider, but it’s not. It’s a valid entry – I just forgot to pay this one bill on time for one month when I had a lot of personal emergencies going on.
I have kept this account open and paid on time since this one mistake. If I go back to the credit card provider and explain that I have learned my lesson and have been a good customer since then, is it possible that they will remove this black mark from my account so that I can have the credit bureaus remove it?
