The more I learn and connect with those who share a common passion, more momentum is gained and actions seem to happen exponentially faster.

I am still trying to get my momentum too. 

@Frank Patterson Amazing start, keep that momentum going.

Smaller tasks build momentum and confidence to go after the bigger ones.

While all of that eventually becomes important right now you should use that energy and momentum to get a deal going first.

The great thing with Middle TN is that there's a vast diversity of thriving job markets that seem to be helping to maintain the momentum. 

This made a lot of buyers walk and we lost momentum after listing the property.

If its that quick really you don't lose much momentum.

Assuming I did my research/math right and ARV gives me appropriate amount of equity to pull out most/all of my cash, how can I refinance in less than 6 months to get to the final R to continue building momentum?

I also have an interest in house flipping, but primarily focused on establishing consistent cash flow.After 6+ months of reading and researching, I’m excited to start building some momentum.
