If you have enough income producing properties in sought after neighborhoods, a handful of properties can easily carry you through retirement and beyond. Never hurts to dabble in a rehab project or two, but that's just me :)

Hey Kimberly, we work out of the Greenville/upstate SC and are looking of expanding into Asheville and maybe Charlotte, NC. Are you near either of those areas?

We charge $50 after the 7th day of the month and then another $50 on the 25th day of the month. I believe most people tack on late fees around the 5th day of the month.

You're lucky, here in SC we have to wait 3 years! Best of luck I plan on getting my brokers and doing the same thing, but I have two years to go!

I got my real estate license for the sole purpose of investing. However, I've gotten very involved in the retail side of the business and I love meeting people and spending time with my clients. I definitely agree with you and recommend investors or anyone who wants to just get an abundance of knowledge about the real estate business!

@Cameron Price Yeah man, Greenville/Spartanburg area is killing it. That recent deal I got was actually in Greenwood, SC.

Well 2015 did me very well being my first full year in real estate and real estate investing and only being 20 years old. I will close on my third rental property in the next week or so and very excited about it. It was a foreclosure and I ended up getting it for $35,000!!!!! Comps support in the mid to upper 60s!! It's a 3bd/2ba and those seem to be renting around $850-$950 in the area so I am very excited about adding this property to my collection! Big plans for 2016 in upstate SC!

I watched Altman's podcast with Cody and ended up not buying anything. There are plenty of other podcasts and programs out there for cheaper and the same information they are trying to sell.
