Although the "contractors" they send to do the work are barely worth the name!

I really want to get started into investing into real estate but I don't know much so please bare with me.

The 2nd picture kitchen one I can't really see the kitchen just the kitchen from the living room but the pictures don't scream granite counter and stainless steal- I can barely see most of them.Maybe move the couch a little bit away from the window and add some window trimmings- maybe red to match your pillows - move the black chair from where it is and center that living room table- put a flower arrangement on living room table- maybe clear glass with red flowers to match pillow cases again- doesn't have to be flowers- could be just some little nick nacks on that table- just something intresting- normally if you dont go with flower you can try nick nacks in odd numbers like 3.

Thanks Eric, I work 16 hours a day and barely have time for active investing.

And even if I could, what we pull out would barely give us enough to buy another property.So, do I search for private lenders?

Here's how it went down.First of all -- I've been a full time real estate agent for less than one year, barely getting by here in Ohio.

Here, two layers are legal, but I'd never do it, nowadays you want (and its code in a lot of places) to use Ice & Water shield under the shingles in some areas, and that needs bare sheathing.

Earlier this year, I applied and barely received a car loan as the adjustor said my debt to income ratio is over 45%. 

B. are there places that I can check of bank real estate before they get listed on the mls so i can start making offers on these house?

So far that appears to only be an option if it is my personal residence.Right now, the property barely breaks even or is slightly negative (using 50% rule)in cash flow until the credit card debt is reduced over time.
