A little guidance needed

Jacob Beard

So I just purchased my first duplex a couple of months backs. If you want to read about it just search the words "need inspiration " it should pop up some where.

So anyway we just purchased this place and we exhausted a lot of funds. Right across the street a home thats been on the mls for months just lowered its price to 30,000!  The dilemma is we can definitely afford to finance it but we are at a point where we need to replenish our ammunition. I don't want to miss a great opportunity. But I don't want to jump the gun. 

I know i have options with investors but I'm new to the real estate game and working with people I don't know in a field Im not well versed on and lack experience really keeps me from going that direction. 

The place will need work. All new floors every where , appliances ,paint and who knows what else. SFH 3bed 2 bath garage... Thanks for your help and input

I think you just answered your own question @Jacob Beard with I need to replenish my ammunition

Be patient,you will find tons of properties that you will like 

Try the creative deals when you run low on funds,like asking the owner to carry the note 

Good luck
