Dear Forum:

I am new to real estate investing. For my first deal I would like to know whether it would be better to purchase an investment duplex out of state or wait until I establish employment and purchase a duplex to owner occupy it in my local area.

Sincerely,

Dear Amit,

Thank you for your response. I was wondering why do you think we are approaching the end of the current cycle and how would that present opportunities for investors?

Dear Buying & Selling Real Estate Forum:

I am seriously considering a career as a real estate agent and am also considering relocating to the San Francisco Bay Area from New York City. I'd like to know everyone's thoughts on which metropolitan area might be better to start a career as a real estate agent and a real estate flipper and buy and hold investor? 

Sincerely,

Dear @David Erjavec:

I was just wondering what the starting price point for a starter home would be in Contra Costa County? Thanks.

Yes, a 40K home, 8K down. Regarding my previous post, excuse me, I misspoke, "8K down" would be a new scenario compared to a 3K home.

So let's say 8K down on a 40K home. 

So what would be a transitional neighborhood to get into in Cleveland for less than 10K?

Dear Forum:

Today I discovered homes for sell for 3,000 dollars and up in Cleveland, Ohio. Does anyone know of safer neighborhoods in the country where houses are this cheap?

Dear Forum:

I've read that it is difficult to get financing for an investment property that is under an LLC if it is your first venture. How can I get financing for this? Any input is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I've also recently read that you can't transfer a property from your name to an LLC because of something called a "due on sale" clause.
