My experience restoring antique automobiles translates well to being able to learn and handle the work involved in fixing a home.

Thus, I have translated it to 'Young People' the title of this post.Today's great housing affordability index from Bloomberg.I would direct your attention at the chart.

A $1.5 Billion hike would roughly translate to a $1500 hike for every $250K of value.

Having checklists, product sheets, checklists, etc is key to saving both time and money and saving time also translates into more money for you.As to tackling larger higher end projects, make sure you buy right, lots can go wrong and while your potential rewards are higher, so are your risks.

If your equity in the home w/ associated demo costs translates to you holding buildable land that is of value, you may have a good deal to work with.

I've been in restaurants most of my life, managing and opening them, and i think those skills can/will translate nicely into managing the multiple aspects of RE investing.  

In real estate there are a couple things rookie investors notice pretty quickly:- Paying cash is more attractive to the seller and tends to get the deal closed sooner (which could translate into a discount or winning when there are multiple bids)- Refinancing (pulling the money out) becomes more painful if paying cash, many banks don't offer delayed financing (https://www.fanniemae.com/content/guide/selling/b2...) and those that do require more hoops to jump through, require 70% loan instead of 80% and don't allow you to extract repair costsI've actually been bitten by this refinancing issue with my first purchase in Chicago.This really hurts rookie investor's ability to start acquiring properties because we don't yet have good connections with hard money lenders/portfolio lenders, enough extra cash of our own to buy multiple properties outright, or enough properties purchased to stagger refinancing such that this doesn't affect us.

I may need a translator because they are Spanish speaking.Thanks again,Giavonn
