For durability, watch your sheen.  

They call it Healthy Homes/Healthy Neighborhoods and they have a YouTube channel to watch the transformation.

@Louis AlumbaughOne thing to watch out for is that most lenders will only only at long term lease market data on the refinance. 

I'm a new investor whose been listening, watching, and trying my best to get a start on this awesome journey.

I would have lessons with his daughter after school, while he would be in the next room of their very nice home drinking, watching sports, and throwing things at the TV.

Watch out for that interest rate... it is probably only for the first 12 months.... that should keep you from cash flowing... 

Have watched people bail in a downturn and give it all back then watch prices skyrocket with their old properties becoming worth millions.

Read BP books (The Book on Rental Property Investing, Managing Rental Properties, Set For Life), watch Youtube videos, etc. 

Just like everything else in life, get started, keep honing those skills (i.e. keep reading, keep learning, keep attending the meetups) and watch yourself get better and better witch each property you buy.I hope this helps and good luck on your real estate journey!

It took me two years to get out of my head and do a deal.Second, I jumped on BP because, while I've watched some of Sean Terry's videos, I don't know too much about his reputation.
