Hey BP members, My wife and I are diving into this world of Real Estate investing (single/multi-fam or house hack) and we are studying and cramming as much information as we can and naturally we have a few questions.

Just wondering how long did it take you to study and pass your State exam?

BUT, can you PROVE that someone saw her intentionally start the fire?

I'm currently studying to get my real estate license as well.

My grandmother is leaning towards selling the property as it is proving to be too much hassle. 

Just a little background on myself I grew up in Silicon Valley and went to school in Orange County studying Economics.  

It's better if you are looking more to replace your salary for years, over giving a lump sum once (a life insurance payout) and having to be frugal/reinvest it to make sure it lasts for years.Anyway, this got much longer than I planned, but I hope it proved to be of some value.

Yep, that makes perfect sense to me ...As to renovations, they are totally market specific ... you need to study the comps.

So you have to be able to communicate and hopefully prove that you're a real investor who will buy properties that they will get repeat business from.
