buy buy buy lol... My retirement account I wait for market crashes ... Real estate I buy weekly. Prices are going up don't wait 2 long to buy... If you wait much longer you may wait many years. 

 I agree with Doug... Live in one unit and rent the other. Ask seller for a 3% seller credit to minimize your down payment. 

syed I buy houses every week with lots of equity that cash flow well. I have To rehab them to get the value add but I can tell you chicago is awesome right now for deal flow. I will say if you are buying in Irving park for example it's super competitive. 

What areas are you buying in right now?

David I live in chicago and can help you acquire houses to achieve your goal. I buy most of properties off maket from Freddie, Fannie, HUD via the national stabilization trust. I acquire then at deep discounts all over chicago and the suburbs at nice discounts. I can also help you with creative financing to achieve your goal faster. Let's connect soon!

Tereal,

I also love love duplexes (2-flats here in chicago). They cash flow like crazy! Keep going and happy hunting!

Duncan I suggest you look at B2Rfinance they will fund 65% ltv for you. They do have a $300k min loan amount so I suggest you go after houses valued more than $150k to start. As far as locations I recommend chicago, Dallas, Cali (if you can find anything that cash flows in Cali). If you are looking for turnkey operators check out Turnkey-reviews.com 

Josiah,

Turnkey-reviews.com lists reputable turnkey operators like my company.  I would recommend starting out with a Turnkey operator and learn as you go. Once you have acquired a few properties I suggest working with a good broker in your back yard.

I'm also looking for Dallas agent with 20 years of experience 

glad to help any way I can! Feel free to use any of this content to your advantage in your backyard
