you need to be networking, walking neighborhoods, building a team, and learning a market. 

It walks you through everything.

Before I go and begin walking around neighborhoods to do everything you have discussed (which I fully intend to do), I am still trying to figure out where I should narrow my search down to.

I reside in the Hampton road areas of Virginia and I would really like a mentor to help baby step walk me through the process. 

The market value for the one I purchased for $114k hovers between $139k and $142k, so I walked into that property with equity from the get-go.

Green is good yellow needs to be looked at and Red is there is something wrong.. you simply walk in and pick up a copy of it on the counter..

You will have had to walk them thru your deal analysis before asking them for your term sheet.  

The PS5 is quite a bit more money and the games are more expensive and could be prone to walking away from time to time.So, how big is the garage and do you have any pics?

Cash flow/FIRE is awesome and most investors start out with this goal in mind but RE investing is work and if one doesn’t enjoy walking the path that RE leads to, RE investing is just another cruddy job.

(I had additional carrying costs from a HELOC, which meant I walked with around $45,000) What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?
