Pushing into other, close-by, markets is the best (and maybe only) way to make it work.

I'm really looking forward to your blog and hearing about your experiences in these markets.

Are you looking to stick within your market? 

VA loans are the only loans that allow this, and there is no rate penalty for it no longer being your primary home.With that in mind, you could do a cash out refinance today at a higher rate than current market rates which will create profit on the loan, we can take that profit to pay for your closing costs.

I still am on the lists of all the major wholesalers and still show up to showings occasionally on properties that might have enough margin for me but have not purchased recently from a wholesaler.Just like Adrien says, they provide a service of marketing and negotiating contracts for you.

The issue I see is that market has historical appreciation below average (not bad, but slightly poor).  

Flipping houses is a great way to create huge profits, raise private money and create marketing content around your remodels (the reason HGTV is HGTV).

The simplest way is to base it on the market temperature of whatever city you’re researching.

Nashville is a ridiculously competitive market.

I'm starting a property management company and I'm curious to know how people have marketed themselves online.
