First keep educating yourself on content, then you may be able to pick a niche or investment style. 

I am content with everything as-is, just curious to hear others' thoughts and experiences with how their financial picture changed after 1 purchase. 

You also delivered thorough content so thank you for the play-by-play.Yes you did just inspire me to get started. 

I guess they would get to collect interest until I pay it off or they get the property back plus the interest if I don't but still...Also, the Ada county auction listings seem to indicate payment due by end of business Thursday (so 4 business days after auction ends basically).And I found this document from Bannock county indicating they expect payment on the day of the auction. https://www.bannockcounty.us/wp-content/uploads/ta...I haven't been able to find much info on idaho statute 31-808(3) actually being used, so I guess for now I'll assume it's rule saying counties can do it if they want but none of them seem to be doing it. 

I personally don't take votes into consideration much as they aren't a true reflection of your contributions.You can post incredibly valuable content to help other members and they still may not vote for your post.This doesn't make your post/insight/information any less useful it just means they didn't click the little button.There are plenty of people like myself with higher posts than votes because we interact a lot with others on BP.I can't expect to get a vote every single time I reply to a conversation I'm having with someone in a thread.

Thanks to those who spend time producing such helpful content.

Hello All,I'm working on closing my first rental property and everything was going according to plan until the termite inspection revealed prior damage and higher than normal wood moisture content in the crawlspace.

I stumbled on the BP podcast about 2 months ago and have been devouring content.

There are great articles in BP that may help you, great content!
