Something has to be sacrificed. 

Modern communities with better balance, access to space, and without sacrificing technologies and connectivity? 

"Recession-durable RE investing for non-accredited investors" How do you defend against recessions, without sacrificing ambition? 

Here are the detailsBuilt in the 1950s, bungalow style home, pier and beam. 2/1 main house, 1100 sq/ft with a 2 garage/apartment in the back, 700 sq/ft, 17,500 sq/ft lot. 3 car carport in front of garage.

Not sure if it works, but what about off white with brown trim, kind of Tudor style?

Looks amazing and really like the style

@Julian Joseph5 years is not that long and the likelihood is that with increases in your income going forward, assuming you maintain your present life style, you could realistically pay it off much sooner.

Home was built in 1932 3 bed 1 bath full basement needs work of course bad neighborhood 1 car garage its a craftsman style home ugly yellow paint on exterior....SEV is 72,000.00....comps range from 39,000.00 to 99,000.00 assuming all 20,000.00 is used to rehab my fear is it will sell for 45,000.00 but not much more and I won't make anything on the deal?!

The Home Style Renovation loan would also be great for your FTHB status.

As an investor myself, I understand what we want to see from agents - I was more asking along the lines of the best ways to showcase properties and communication styles.
