Hopefully this gives you some direction.

To maximize your investment, use financing options like FHA or conventional loans, analyze deals based on cash flow and cap rates, and network with local investors through REI meetups and BiggerPockets.Good luck!

Let’s be real: Not every deal is going to close. 

In my day job I do SEO for a digital marketing agency and I am more than happy to talk SEO with anyone who has questions.I'm interested in Long-term rentals, though admittedly, finding deals below market value and funding those deals (not to mention I honestly have no idea have to put the deals under contract in the first place), are problem the first things I'll need to learn.

It is a cash only deal.

Cash invested: $60 Sale price: $365,000 Sub-to deal with homeowner pre-foreclosure How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

The eleventh hour deal just fell through after we jumped through hoops getting them every piece of paper they needed to close this deal by tonight.

These strategies would will grow you cash flow safely without dealing with a bank. 

If you are apprehensive of the market, and believe it will get worse before it gets better, you might consider going to cash, doing a private loan to a flipper on a project where it would be a screaming deal if you had to foreclose, and taking a look in 9 or 18 months. 

Apparently, our property management company agreed to that without communicating with me.I contacted the plumber directly on Monday and they said they could get to the house on Tuesday.
