I currently live on the north side so I am trying to see what areas would make for good buy and hold investments.

The amount of this deposit is going to depend on the auction itself.

I'm trying to pinpoint my financial strategy in attaining these projects and HMLs are always suggested to me.My goal this year is to buy my first investment.

I’m looking into the flipping market and trying to understand more about it since that’s what I want to focus on and do in my life.

Thank you,Phil Don’t have any experience with the mentioned mentors, but I do have 45 years experience in commercial real estate investing.Flipping (wholesaling) commercial properties require the same base of knowledge (real estate principles, real estate law and real estate finance) that is a foundational requirement for flipping residential properties; PLUS, extensive knowledge of the commercial property TYPE one is trying to engage with, and extensive knowledge of the local real estate market for the subject property type.
