@Mike Kulnich Would you recommend taking a real estate course online or attend a physical class in order to meet the required 60 hours?

My first deals I as very hands on in the sense that I did demo, installations, and other physical labor.

However I’ve reached out to my Previous lender and she stated the equity would be considered paper equity and I’d need to physically pay in 20% on my own before they’d remove PMI.

Some people classify a primary residence as a liability because there is no cash flow (I personally see it as an asset) and unless you are renting it out you are losing money but everyone has to live somewhere so you might as well be paying down debt on something you can potentially sell for profit later. 

Buying physical assets is unlikely to lose principal unless you're over leveraged...To me, the control is more valuable with direct investments, passive investments are for later in my career.

I will tell you that the GC portion, if he is working physically on the jobs, scheduling subs, and project management, is much more physically and mentally demanding than the business side of the deal  (real estate/ marketing/legal).

For the purposes of this section, a tenant shall be deemed to have relinquished possession of the premises upon any of the following:(1) Execution of an order of possession in favor of the landlord.(2) If the tenant has physically vacated the premises, removal of substantially all personal property and the providing of a forwarding address or written notice stating that the tenant has vacated the premises.

I’m in the location I wish to invest in so I can physically look at the properties.

Also, I will not be able to physically look at the house for at least the next two months so I can't confirm the state of the property although it appears to be in good condition from the pictures.

Best course, IMO, would be to buy one cash, then refinance it later if need be.Last thing to consider is the physical condition of these properties.
