@Aqil Dharamsey I will be looking for a management company once i acquire the property so glad to know i have someone to reach out to.

On the one hand, I realize I just need to let time do it's magic and enjoy appreciation and debt paydown, but I'm looking for ways to continually grow my portfolio by either acquiring more properties or finding ways to generate more income which will be used to purchase more properties.I tried using OPM but that doesn't work for me for several reasons - if I go down a loan route I can't pay it back because of my LTV cap and partnering for equity requires a lot of work in bulding trust and even then it's for a very small share of equity which is insignificant.

I am not personally familiar with Detroit housing outside of what I observe in these forums but from what I gather these homes are acquired at relatively low price points.

If the place allows sub-let, I can acquire properties for as little as $1,500 down. 

In March of this year, we acquired title to a property in St.

I do have some of it invested in tax liens (paying up to 12% tax free interest) that I hope to turn into a couple cheaply acquired rental properties.When I reach 59.5 I will have the option of pulling out 5k to 10k every month of tax free rental income or letting it build up more as there are no RMD's on a ROTH.This is just one of many sources of money for me in retirement.

When you have gotten a property with a HELOC do you have to let the money "season" in your bank account before you will be able acquire the financing from the lender? 

Hello,My wife and I are looking to acquire the 22 acres of land that just went up for sale next door to our five acre Jiu-Jitsu event center.

Cost to acquire is ~100k and I plan on spending an extra 15k on repairs. 

Granted MFH are more common in rougher parts of central jersey and my purchasing power can't acquire me something in North Jersey here homes are much more desirable when it comes to appreciation and schools and safety.
