If not, can I tell the contractor I want this exact item that's listed a $X, and get charged close to the amount of $X(Of course maybe a bit more for the contractors time to attain the item).Thank you!!!

Between North ID and Spokane it seems like there should be ample investment opportunities.

I have found ample properties in Battle Creek, Jackson and Kalamazoo that fit that formula.I can't tell you what Detroit is like but much of western Michigan is very desireable for raising a family.

I really want to leave the day job behind but am curious how I attain a mortgage for these flips without a job or 2 years tax returns showing capital gains income (not even sure if that will qualify?)

It is estimated that 1.5 million new homes per year will be needed to attain a balance.

It would be healthier to only have to worry about school loans, savings and bills when I attain a higher paying job, better positioning me for success.

lenders will require you to pay off those debts before issuing you a mortgage, but in the meantime I would concentrate on getting my score higher, and attaining higher limit cards.

Those are pretty lofty goals for someone new to real estate investing, but definitely attainable with the correct planning, education and execution.
