If you have any cap ex left in Palm Bay (like an HVAC major repair or roof) you will lose cash flow for years.

Would love to hear your favorite calculators that you would like to see on the app this year.

@Zach HowardAll 1800-2400sf, 3-5bd, 2-7 year old (when I bought them), stucco sided, tile roofed, SFR without lawns. 

I have probably gotten between a hundred and two hundred loans within the past 8 years and I have learned some things along the way that make getting loans easier and harder.

although we bought about 6 years ago or so for 270 put 100k into it so you can do the math  no debt .. hoa 400  we pay utls. 200 or so.. so 600 a month out of the 3500.. tax's about 1500 a year ( got to love Vegas taxs ) value today right at 600k.. so lets say we net about 33k a year on 370k cash .. so not bad little under 10% COC with an outstanding tenant one of the best I have ever had.PS given tenant quality we manage ourselves.. 

This means you can focus on growing your portfolio with confidence, knowing that every aspect of your investment is being handled by experts.As for my experience, I've been in the industry for over 10 years. 

No problem, though—I can get close to $100K saved by the end of the year, so I’ll be in a much stronger position.My question is, is there a specific number I should be striving for that would put me in a good position to invest in real estate?

You will regret it in 10 years when the house has 300k in equity.Right now, the house probably does NOT have 190k in equity.

Since you and your husband bring 20+ years of residential construction experience to the table, you already have a huge advantage.

Ive been watching bigger pockets for about a year now.
