The first thing I would recommend is to establish your investor identity.

I didn't steal any farms from grandma or force their hand.

Their next battle isn't identical to anyone else's, each deal is different.

If that were Canton , it would be a steal , if it were Curtis Bay it would be way over priced .

This is one of 3 identical adjacent duplexes, all built late 1940s, all situated handsomely on top of a hill across from a popular city park.

If I ran across a $200k house that was a steal, I would never consider that for rental, but I would for a flip, same with a house with a pool, I have one house with a pool and have great tenants that take care of it, if they ever move I will probable sell itIt also has a great deal to do with time, if you are working full time and investing in RE, flips take a lot of time, rentals not so much.

@Christopher Schmidt, your scenario and mine are identical; whereas A and B are parents and obviously I am the C in this equation.

Again, contrary to what has been said here there are indeed good teachers out there and good courses I know that because I worked with them and bought their materials.Don't let the naysayers steal your dream!

Are you trying to steal the deal from another investor??

In college I went as an adult, began stealing the floor, the teacher asked if I'd take part of his class and he'd bug out!
