The last two years are an exception, they sent shock waves into the market and many new investors over bought.  

Accelerate payments as you get older and rents go up.Enjoy your hard earned income and smart investment strategy during quality years of life.And maybe you get lucky and catch an awesome wave of appreciation and you never have to look back again.I saw one relative buy their first at 31, “forever home” at 39, and then next rental acquisition was not until 53, followed by 4 more strategic buys during the crash (he had money saved up and equity in their primary from not investing in his 40s).

@Elliott Elkhoury don’t throw Ohio under the bus!

You get 5 years to operate at a loss (no income tax) before the red flags start waving.

I have lived on the shoreline for 28 years.Bridgeport is terrible, New Haven (also known as Pistol Waving New Haven) is awful coupled with the highest property taxes 2nd to Hartford.  

There is a tidal wave of information on wholesaling on the BP site.

Flat does a better job at hiding waves in the drywall or nail pops that can happen.Walls would be fine with either flat or eggshell.  

Some bigger banks here in FL offer ELOCs on rentals but I'm worried I'll run into seasoning requirements.Can anyone recommend an institution or broker that doesn't season, or can a good rental contact on a F&C property persuade the big banks to wave seasoning?

And I love how, if there are repairs a buyer wants, (wave the magic wand)...ta da!...

When pressed, they'll admit that the deal is possible, but they practically wave their wrists at me, trying to get me to move along.
