If such newbie/broke Investors can find a Lender who answered yes, and who is now party to this rebranded "non-prime" lending spree I've been hearing about, then - hard lessons ahead!

Only the broke or stupid believe you can make money from nothing (these days at least). 

Basically since 08 when I went broke.

(city water main broke and flooded basement) insurance work was approx. $25,000.

You're going to want to set aside for water heaters, furnace repairs (which are hella expensive because they only fail when it's an emergency) and the roof.That all said, when I first started, I broke even for a while.

Running the numbers, it's clear to see I'm getting more for my money by doing so and I didn't have to go broke to do it like I would here.

@David Michael Like most, my fear is that i will be broke as an agent in NYC.

You want to get rid of a tenant that is fixing something they broke?

Then 800 to fix front door that he broke.

I started out a broke less then middle class stay at home mom, and now own a company whos net worth is well over 2.5 mil.
