Also interested in sober living homes as investments, as I care about the opioid crisis and would love to make an REinvestment that suppOrts recovery.

@Marina WongI don't really care for debt deals especially on a house flip because even if I am covered with LTV in a recession I can't rent it out and cashflow.I prefer equity deals.

I've seen a lot of marketing dollars pumped in and produce no deals so be careful with your plans.

I won’t be able to work outside the home as a nurse because the hours just don’t work with caring for my son and my husband’s schedule.Long term we’re looking to have me run our REI business anyway.

I know many investors that do great with SFRs.One huge benefit is that you can offload ALL expenses, like lawn care, snow removal, and all utilities.

Be careful who you use contractors will take advantage of you once they find out their working on a rental property.650 sounds like you can definitely raise rent.

Gross Income: $20,400Annual Expenses: $13,988.40Annual Cash Flow: $6,411.60Annual expenses, include- water, lawn care, capex, property manager, maintenance, vacancy, Insurance, taxes. 

I have an applicant with the following application credentials:550 credit score, two bankruptcies, a foreclosure, moved 3 different times in 2017  Now on the upside:No debt (that seems obvious), earns a good salary, been on the job for 25 years, lives alone, no pets.This person once took care of other family members and no longer has anyone to take care of anymore.

I would be careful on playing hardball, as sometimes it might cost you way more than 2 days.

There will be some damage to the door stop as the blade passes through, but it will be minimal if you're careful.
