All the "i want this bad" and "this is a test" is a mindset that is going to sink you. 

Hello all,I am new to the site and new to the mindset of real estate investing.

Due to a family issue with my parents and sick sister I may want to go the route of having a duplex built rather than finding one already existing. 

If it’s a company account it has to be STRICTLY about real estate and mindset rather than be about general interests.

As an architect I see the dollar driven mindset of the developer.

I'm currently 18, living with my parents, doing both college and work full-time, my college is paid for by my employer.

Cool thing is though that you can get their parents to co-sign so collecting additional money to cover said damages is much easier than it is when renting to regular tenants especially if you're in the lower income arena.

The goal is to meet people who are having success and learn about what they've done.The reason for these recommendations is: a lot can be done with $100k, but the money will only go as far as your mindset and education.

I love how you're thinking "how can I make this work", keep up that mindset.
