TurnKey, Buy-and-holds, flips, or maybe long-term rentals?

Focus on getting the first one and try to buy one a year. 

Not exactly sure what Safeguard does but if they are originating notes for owner occupied properties then they need to follow the Dodd Frank rules and anyone buying such notes should make sure they did.  

Probably buy during hurricane season (now) to get the best deal. 

I’ve also used a HELOC to buy a couple houses.

I'm interested in buy and hold for now, might do some fix and flips later on. 

My partner know how to do it and said he could buy the stuff on the internet for $200 and we could permit it and he'd wire it.

Now, I’m rebuilding my portfolio while continuing to help others buy and sell homes.

@Chase AlexanderRecommend you first figure out the property Class you want to invest in, THEN figure out the corresponding location to invest in.Property Class will typically dictate the Class of tenant you get, which greatly IMPACTS rental income stability and property maintenance/damage by tenants.If you apply Class A assumptions to a Class B or C purchase, your expectations won’t be met and it may be a financial disaster.If you buy/renovate a property in Class D area to Class A standards, what quality of tenant will you get?

Little background behind the door: It's a MDF cheap one you buy at HD or Lowes.
