I've been searching for and working towards purchasing my first investment property for years and years, every time I found one that fit, other local investors with more experience, more readily available funds or alternative financing, and more connections were already writing offers while I was touring the property.

If children fit your demographic I would also recommend bunk beds in one of the rooms complete with games, tv, etc.

They offer a free tier to get started, so it's a budget-friendly option to see if it fits your needs.

If you cannot delay gratification, you are unlikely to be successful in anything because most things in life that are deeply satisfying - getting fit, getting an advanced education, moving deeply through a career, achieving financial success, etc - takes a lot of time and effort and requires sacrificing many short-term niceties and pleasures for long-term achievement. 

Look for strong economic and population growth with a robust and diverse employment base.Next, you should identify neighborhoods and locations which fit your investments criteria.

I am quite a healthy and fit guy and was seeing if anyone else shared my interest for business and a healthy life style, looks like I found ya :)!

Once you know your goals, you can pick a market that fits the bill.

HELOC's are low cost, digital, cookie cutter no exception type processing- you fit in the box or not.

We build a 2004 square foot stacked triplex. the footprint of it is less than 1000 sq ft. it fits on a lot that is less than 3000 sq ft and most of the time we do it with variances.

This is not a box everyone will fit and I get that.
