@Scott Mac

I paid a $10 EMD to seller. No downpymt. I will pay closing costs of about $1600 according to Title company in two weeks when we close. I will find a tenant buyer or sell it within 60 days. Plan to net >$20k!

@Tarik Carey

Hi. I will give my 2 cents worth. I attended a one day workshop on Fri, did what they said prior to mtg, got an an appt while in training, had the house under contract 5 days after workshop.

I don't want you to think every student there had those results because they didn't. I followed his instructions and I got results.

The real bottom line is if you are ready to follow instructions you will get results with R. L. If you don't follow instructions you aren't ready for results in any system.

I wish you the best success.

Hi Erin. Can you give me more information as to what a "good" deal would mean to you? Do you want turnkey properties or some maintenance required. Do you need a certain ARV to comps ratio? Do you need the properties occupied with tenants or vacant?

I would be happy to wholesale a deal with you if I knew what your clients were looking to buy.

This property is in move-in condition and ready to be purchased for cash. This is on more than .30 acre lot. It's comp value is over $300,000 and for sale for $249,000.
Available to rent, lease option, sell, or Airbnb.
I have it under contract and am ready to assign. If you are interested you must be able to provide proof of funds within 48 hours. Provide $5000 EMD (good faith money) in escrow. Contact me for immediate answers and to move on this fantastic investment opportunity!

Hmmmm, I'm not an expert so please understand I'm just expressing an opinion or maybe trying to help by asking more questions. Personally, I like 3-4 plex as income producing properties. A few things I asked reading your post is how old is the property?, does it have tenants in it?, are you including as income rent you are charging yourself?, and how much cash or OPM do you have for repairs/improvements after you buy it?, what is the ARV? What are the area comps both rental and sales?

If you live in one of your units you have cut what you expect as income. If you plan to do that it is okay but remember to run your numbers with that scenario.

Brandon has said many times the first property you buy won't make you financially rich... it's the education and confidence that will lead you to the next deal and the next deal and the next deal... that will. Because of that I would encourage you to run the numbers as accurately as possible, be honest with your goals, and if the property seems to align with your goals...GO FOR IT!

Don't attempt to teach what a person doesn't want to know. If he is successful in what he is doing let him continue to walk his road. The great thing about RE is we don't have to choose the same strategies to be successful. Find another agent who will walk the road you're on or will help you on your journey. Best wishes.

Hi Garrett. If you are giving up in Orlando you need to join a local REI and talk to some successful investors. Orlando is HOT! You have the largest college in FL and the most tourists in the State also. Talk to the Chamber of Commerce and find out the development plans for the next decade and you will understand better why you are in a great area to make serious money. It is not an EASY market because EVERYBODY knows it's HOT but if you aren't afraid to learn your market and WORK you will be successful. There is definitely plenty of opportunity in Orlando. House hack, wholesale, BRRRR... all great strategies to start with. Best wishes for your success Garrett and hang in there.

Ryan, have you checked out being a virtual transaction coordinator? If interested type it into the BP search bar.

I'm not recommending; just suggesting to be helpful.  :)

Welcome to BP Whittany. I'm also one of the many multifamily investors in Bradenton. :) Are you buying to rent all the units or will you be living in one of the units?

Feel free to contact me if I can help answer a question or two about what I've experienced in the local market of Bradenton.
