It's hard to watch the flood damage in the news because my wife and I have visited numerous times.

I feel so late to the party, but also so thankful to have found Bigger Pockets while my wife and I were presented with a big (to us) multifamily opportunity a few months ago.

My wife and I have been blessed to have 4 units that we own which we MTR and another unit that we arbitrage as an MTR.

My wife and I are looking to go further into real estate investing.

Purchase price: $10,000 Cash invested: $75,000 New construction, purchased a home in condemned form form being I could do repairs and wife could sale being her real estate firm What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

My wife and I are new out of state investors and I reached out to Michael Azzam in mid-November 2022. 

My wife is a long time real estate agent in the area.

It helped my wife and I save up money to continue investing.I’ll give you one very important DO.

Don't have to be on the deed even to declare it your homestead.It may be splitting hairs, and I may have been unclear in my initial post, but I believe homestead laws are designed in part to protect non-title holding spouses, so if the new wife moves into her husband's house he cannot sell or mortgage without the wife's consent nor can it be forced to be sold to pay involuntary creditors (as opposed to voluntary creditors such as mtg/DOT lenders). 

This will cease by the end of the year as I think my wife and I have earned it.
