A point in the right direction (financing)

[John Draper]

Can anyone give some advice to a beginner on financing?..... I just purchased my first home last year and I've been intrigued with the idea of investing. I would like to plan and prepare for the purchase of a second home which I will hold and rent. Does anyone have any suggestions on creative financing or general information on getting approved for a second mortgage?

(how soon can you buy a second property???)
