There is no perfect software out there.

Hey @Henry Lazerow - I would tend to agree that most of the NW side of Chicago 2-4 units don't play out perfectly well for BRRRR deals.I always looked at any potential house hack vs. having to rent - if my overall payments were less than the rent I generally considered that a win.For me...the house hack is just the ticket into the amusement park and then the fun rides come after...getting started can be overwhelming and hard so I can see why people might take a discount.I think one of the keys to strong equity creation is square footage creation which is basically what you outlined with duplexing up or down.

So with that in mind, are you willing to make a 5% profit or less on doing this yourself if everything goes perfect?   

That will be perfect. but you still need additional cash to make the loan payments + refinance closing costs, other miscellaneous costs.When I started I didn't have a lot of resources, so starting wholesaling then fixing and flip to create cash, before I did my first rentalOf course there are other ways to buy a rental, but these are my two cents

Purchase price: $24,000 Cash invested: $100,000 Beautiful remodel currently on the market in Augusta GA, perfect for rental portfolio.

FF is not a perfect platform or system, and I don't believe it should be relied on 100%, but it can be a useful tool

If you have to file next week, give her one last email to pay you with a cashier's check before you file, and tell her it's going to show on her searches.Small claims in Ohio is $6000Get your accounting looking PERFECT. 1. demand to pay water bill/ canceled checks what you paid and what they billed2. in Ohio does the seller get to keep deposits (I say no they should have been transferred to buyer) Who handled your closing?

It doesn't need to be perfect, but it needs to be as free as you can get it.

Perfect answer.

I just think we have so much info with a bunch of influencers that we always pysch ourselves out thinking everything has to be perfect.
