Ive saved 10k for my first investment property and THINK I'm ready to pull the trigger.

Do your diligence and make sure you're confident in moving forward before pulling the trigger.

Although I'm not ready to pull the trigger in Edmonton,  I like the buildings around Jasper and my second choice is Whyte (82nd) - Old Strathcona area.

And you should be able to get a 30 year due in 3, 5, or even ten years.Good that you don’t pull the trigger on the bad deal out of frustration.

Hey @Matthew Swearingen - as someone else pointed out, you may not be getting the best response from agents because there are a bunch of "tire kickers" out there that never actually end up pulling the trigger on a property.

., itchy trigger finger syndrome, eh? 

Now I am finally ready to pull the trigger after getting over the biggest hurdle... convincing the wife.So I currently hold 2 SFRs with no mortgage in San Gabriel Valley and Inland Empire region of SoCal.

You could quit claim it into your LLC but it technically triggers the due on sale clause.

Landlord wants to sell 4 properties. 3 are Duplex, the other single family. She owns them free and clear. They are all OCCUPIED with section 8 tenants. Rent per unit is currently 900.
Her asking price is 60k per dupl...

I have no background in real estate at all but it has always interested me and I am now pulling the trigger on getting started.
