However I would say this tax payment deadline is the prompt to pay. 

A bit tight but hardly terrible. 

They are collecting signatures via petition to get this on the ballot for this November 2024.This week is the deadline to return a petition.

Cats make me nervous, I worry about them scratching everything up and then I would need to replace a bunch of stuff in a tight window. 

I initially thought that was a very tight window for a land purchase, but I'm curious to hear if that's the norm for everyone?

Occasionally we did find ourselves in a tight spot, and had to use my husband's HELOC and 401K, but that was after we had already had success and knew that what we were doing could work.

I have one and will most likely have more in the future if commercial lending standards remain tight.

Cashflow is tight right now because the winter season in my area of Maine is a lot slower.

I am currently writing my business plan the deadline for it is March 10th, 2024 then I will hire someone from fiver who is smarter then me at writing and they will take what I wrote and make it look better and presentable.

@Danny McCarthy your work background shows in your systematic approach.You should also set yourself a deadline for buying a rental.For local clubs, check out REIAofOakland, MREI & Renegade Detroit Investors.Regarding your plans, great approach for first 1-2 properties, but then you'll have scaling challenges.
