Quote from @Jimmy Rojas: I live in Arizona and homes here are sky high, youd be lucky to get %6 interest rate, I would be a 1st time home buyer, apart from being 1099 employed would Trumps real estate plans benefit the little guys like me? 

It's that simple.Doesn't hurt to have real hardwood floors and A/C as well.

In fact, some of the best opportunities in real estate come from properties that others overlook—distressed homes with potential that just need the right investor to bring them back to life.If you’ve been in the game long enough, you know that distressed properties can offer huge upside, but they also come with their own set of challenges.

Did you work with any real estate professionals (agents, lenders, etc.) that you'd recommend to others?

How do you evaluate if a property is ideal for flipping or if you should keep it as a rental?

Otherwise, broker classes that lead to a real license are cheap.If you want to become a real broker, earn a real license.
