Getting started in El Paso, Texas
I've already made a few posts on here so I guess it's time to introduce myself. Almost 60, just started investing in 2006 when I re-fi'ed my first home. Used the cash to buy another home, an RV (bad choice), and down-payment on third home(another bad choice-my own fault). This year purchased my fourth home with hard money. The second home was a dump, couldn't even buy it as a home because it was a converted trailer. The third home was a bad choice only because it needed more repair etc. than I anticipated. To sum it up, I'm doing ok, but not as good as I could have mostly because of the older number three home.
