With DSCR, credit and down payment are the major factors (plus the property itself of course) so it is very possible since a lot of the properties in the area cashflow pretty well. 

I just want you to go into your investing as prepared as possible. 

Some of these strategies (though not all, and possibly not the most profitable) are the subject of constant discussion on BP. 

in that case only "protected" notes would  guarantee a return, where the other ones would be more riskier...Appreciate the input, also looking into making some investments possibly with Aloha.

Quote from @James Sills: I am looking at changing careers as soon as possible to something that can help my real estate investing aspirations.

I'd rather work something out with a private lender if possible to make it work.

Tenant also claimed possible mold, rotted subfloor etc, which Remediation said they found no evidence of.

After feeling hopeless, lost and confused about a year ago, I'm happy to report that I'm starting to see the light and the path to wealth after taking consistent action, and am excited to be seeing the progress.Cheers, to constant and never ending improvementArgelI don’t see how it’s possible to generate enough cash flow as a real estate investor starting with no or limited capital.  

It's possible to find great tenants with thorough screening, but also be mindful if you're considering short-term (e.g., AirBnB) as it will expose your property to bad actors.Law enforcement and the legal system seem to operate quite slowly out there.

I would also ask my attorney about the advisability recording a copy of the contract or an affidavit of interest as I think it's possible the seller may have found someone willing to pay more for the property and I'd want a third party to be aware of my contract interest in the property.Lastly, I'd make sure the attorney I hired specializes in real property law, particularly in the county where the property lies.
