My older brother says now is the time to sacrifice and build a business. He’s 43 with 4 kids. We have our second coming in June.

I’m off work all summer since I’m a teacher. We have a contract with a fixer upper, and I plan to do most of that myself our summer. However, live in fixer uppers seem like a great option for y’all. We are in a home we love, so we aren’t willing to move. If we weren’t though, I would be trying to do exactly as you-rent out my current residence and find another fixer upper to do while I live in it.

@Emran Chowdhury not sure I understand about the "do not call registry"

@Sunny Burns good for you man. A true rich dad. There's no telling the influence you will have on your kids. Thanks for sharing the story. 

DM me and I can send you a contact 

I’ve started looking hard for off market deals. Cold-calling the owners myself when I see a house that fits my buy box and a house that looks like the owners might be willing to sell. I’ve had some call backs and answers and going to see a property this week. 

 My question is what now? If we settle on a price, how do I go about closing on the house? Im pre approved for an investment loan, but I’m not sure where to start with paperwork. 

Do you know a real estate attorney?

Looks like there are some kit options out there!

I hear you about getting "worn out." Only so much you can learn through a podcast. If you're looking for deals with intensity and consistency, a deal will eventually come. Could be a month, could be a year. Never know. 

Hey Christopher. I'm just south of you in Dothan. Best of luck with your investing!

Exit strategy. If I plan to sell a house but can't, can I rent it and cover expenses? If I plan to rent but can't get a tenant, can I sell to cover expenses? Do I have the income to cover the mortgage if I can't rent or sell? Could I short term rent if long term isn't an option? How many nights would it need to be booked to cover expenses? All the not so fun questions to ask if things don't go as planned.
