I'll definitely take a look.

Actual cost takes into account depreciation so complete destruction of a property could leave you under water in terms of the amount paid for the loss.

Relatively small amounts of interest income ($1600+ per year) is the highest taxed form of income I have found if you have kids at home.After earning a few grand in interest, It takes away my child tax credits and gives me an effective tax rate of 70%.   

I spent 10+ years taking down deals and mentoring people before I formalized it. 

I do direct booking through the Houfy website, taking credit card payment by Square. 

If you want to do that, take the course and learn from them.

Happy you're taking the leap.. any thoughts on how you'll build your deal-finding pipeline?

(even when I had no money and no way to take it down alone.)

Can they prove how long it takes to rent a vacant property?

Read books and maybe take on the occasional 3 day seminar.
