Use free tools available on the internet to research and get ball park figures for analyzing investments.

We still have a Pawn Shop at the Main St corner downtown and the fireworks vendor hired for the 4th of July extravaganza dropped the ball and cancelled the show (luckily we blew stuff up in our own street), so we are no Downtown Winter Garden yet, but headed in the right direction. 

Buy 3 single family homes ( around $40k-$50k each) and then do a HELOC to get 3 more houses and continue with the snow ball effect.Or ask to a investors bank for a bigger loan using those $120k-$150k as down payment to buy rental properties of course.Thank you!

I would love some guidance from some experienced folks on how to really get the ball rolling. 1) I seem to be in a spot where I am just not sure where to find deals.

Most of the properties I'm looking at purchasing are in the 200k to 400k ball park, which would mean a monthly payment increase from $316.00 to $632.00 per month.

You need to have more than 1 ball in the air because you never know from where you will catch the next break / deal.  

@Brandon Carriere I understand no one has a crystal ball and maybe my math is wrong but are you telling me that you think my house could be worth 27000 to 40000 more in 6 -12 months?

I would say dad, you taught me how to throw a ball, drive a car, but, I think I can teach you something about building wealth. 

I figure if i find a good deal that doesnt require too much time or money in repairs and find a suitable renter, its more cashflow to give me that little boost to get started before i can make some waves.So my question or advice that im seeking is, when i do find the deal(s) that i like, do you think it would be more beneficial for my situation to buy at 3.5% down and buy more houses that way in order to get the ball rolling or put down 20% on one house?  

Debt up to his eye balls?
