It does cost a lot to maintain it, so you'll have to do at least 1 deal a year to pay for it.

I've got a lot to consider now.

You have hit the JACKPOT of resources for real estate investors.

Looking to purchase a home on a corner lot and had survey done on the original plat drawn out in 1926 it states the lot to be 67.8ft wide 130.5 ft deep.

I haven't done anything with NPN yet, because I know there is a lot to learn and a lot of people you need to get to know to find the good deals like relationships with banks and credit unions etc... but we will see how things play out.

I’ve been interested in RE investing for several years, as I’ve found that I’m good at digging up opportunities and closing, and I enjoy crunching numbers and analyzing problems.I’m interested in meeting people who have set up private money / private equity deals in the past, especially if it involved single-family residential buy-and-hold strategy.I’m also looking at pulling the trigger on the local Lifestyles Unlimited seminar, because I have a lot to learn, and also because I want access to what Lifestyles considers “best practices” in what will be my market.I’m happy to hear all sides of any idea and my hobbies include playing devil’s advocate and drumming at my local church.

So a lot to consider.

I've done a lot to it already, but I see all its future problems staring at me everyday.
