While working a 9-5 I wrote songs.

For FICO Scores calculated from older versions of the scoring formula, this shopping period is any 14 day span.

However, the buy & hold area is so much different than flipping that telling you I have a deal that will cash flow at 1% is about the same as telling you I have a pair of shoes that will fit you without knowing your shoe size.Flipping employs a fairly simple and defined formula that everyone can use.  

Also I'm trying to understand if the buy and hold model for investors uses a different formula than if I was to flip the houses. such as if I buy at 300,000 and the net income is 30,000 a year, does the 10% a year against the purchase price solidify the deal?

For many people, there's a real fear of either "doing it wrong" or "doing it at the wrong time".So many people are looking for THE formula and become overwhelmed because there are many, many, many correct ways of doing it.  

(Of course you can adjust to your numbers but the formula is basically the same).

Although my formula is to keep my properties maintained well and pick good tenants, to try to get my active management as passive as possible.Do you "live the dream" and travel/vacation year round or do you focus on building your empire to ever greater heights?

Hi ,    I have tried your wholesaling calculator for rental.PFA the screenshots.The thing is that using the formula given in your website to calculate maximum purchase price i am getting a totaly different answer compared to what i am getting using the calculator.Which is correct?

I'm thinking the old Creedence Clearwater song "Oh Lord, stuck in Lodi again" is appropriate theme music for this thread :)

(lyrics in a song, I forget what song), but that is so true.More so with younger people than older people, but we are a lot like water or electricity, seeking the path of least resistance.
