But you really don't need one to buy a few properties.But, a great attorney is worth their weight in gold.

Here is a breakdown of the scoring and weighting for FICO.

Where as if you can buy your dream home for 180k and ya know you wanna live there forever.

I read on some other discussions here that positive cash flow in San Diego is a dream on any new properties so does our current strategy of buying and holding still make sense here?

This leads you to overleveraging territory, so you ought to measure whether your dream factory job can support the maintenance of however many units you are looking to purchase on top of debt payments on both a HELOC and mortgage.

I believe that most people on here are of the entrepreneurial mindset and would benefit greatly from starting another dream business in one of these Opportunity Zones.

Nice to see someone pursuing their REI dream with focus & a strategy.

He doesn't want to deal with the properties any longer and live the dream?

With how many different aspects are involved in real estate investing I always recommend people getting into it seriously to establish a "real estate investment dream team," a group of professionals they have access to for any time they have problems. 

I really want to impress him, and not just be looked upon as some other young man with big hopes and dreams.
