I didn’t have a mentor and learned the hard way of how to service the general public and real estate investors.Master how to service the general public and at the same time find a mentor who is licensed and does real estate investments in your state here on BiggerPockets.I wish you success!

The folks here having the most success in that area are door knocking.Hope that helps!!

Once you add in the cost of repairs you'll likely have a house worth maybe slightly more than the others in the neighborhood but probably not enough to offset the closing costs of doing the cash out refi.This isn't to say that it can't be done and plenty of people have had success doing it........but it's something you'd have to know well to make sure it will actually work.

By working on the deal (funding or making) you can stack the odds of a successful outcome in your favor.Best of luck.

Whats made you success ?

So, where in the country have people had (buy and hold rental) success with $100K properties?  

I have tried reaching out to utility management companies but have not had success as it seems most of them are either area specific or only except large portfolios.Does anyone have a good solution to the time consuming task of managing their utilities when they purchase, sell or rent their properties out?
