Considering the concept "you make money when you buy" how would you reconcile that against your recommendation that a new investor starts with a turnkey rental vs a property that needs even minimal work so there's equity in the property after repairs/upgrades?

Partner Driven was drawn to the N Pasadena Ave property in Waterford, CA, due to its potential for a high return on investment with minimal renovation costs.

The interest rate obviously won't be as good but maybe you can find a deal with minimal cash down.

To minimize my loss, I want to make sure that section 8 continues to pay me while she is in the unit till I get her out. 

If this is your first step into real estate, I would suggest finding a home that needs minimal work and is in a good rental market.

Acquired for $154,000 and resold for $185,000 on the same day, the deal offered excellent profit margins with minimal holding time.

The outcome highlighted our strategic approach and strong partnership, resulting in a substantial profit with minimal time investment.

Partner Driven was attracted to the S Homan Ave property in Chicago, IL, due to its potential for a high return on investment with minimal renovation costs.

@Brenda FreemanI think seller finance can make sense when you can get an at or above market price; you don't need the proceeds; you want the monthly income; and delaying the proceeds will make sense from a tax perspective.If you are saying there's an existing mortgage you would have to pay off yourself, then I don't think that makes any sense - why would you want to invest your own cash to make this work?
