Shauna, are you waiting on seasoning? I know that at least one group is back to no seasoning time period. 

Hi Robert, I have a good friend in Orlando, Marlena Dates. You should look her up on social media. She runs REI Live Orlando which is a great way to connect with people.

This is a large miss conception. You are not hurt for smart shopping, just make sure you aren't home shopping, and car shopping, and credit card shopping all at the same time. You also want to keep these in smaller windows. 

I work with a program that is a 30 year fixed with no season program that you may be interested in. 

Joshua, If you are concerned about fake people. Look closer to home. Friends, family members, family members of friends for private money. Then record the loan as well, and make sure you read all the contracts. You can also look for properties that the seller is willing to finance and do seller financing or subject 2 financing. 

Hi John, Congratulations! You can do anything you set your mind to and stick to a plan! I would suggest working on building your credit, showing a consistent job for 2 years while keeping your debt low. This will help you secure an FHA loan, you can then rent out rooms and help cover the mortgage. Then when you are ready, buy a second property to move into and repeat the process. You can also try wholesaling on the side to get to know the market, neighborhoods, and rehab levels. If you are able to connect with sellers that are open to subject 2 or seller financing, these are 2 great ways to build a rental portfolio with little downpayments. Don't forget about Private Money! There is always a way to make your goals happen if you really want them!
