I live in Lawrenceville, GA and am beginning my first house hack, working to purchase another property by the end of the year. 

For a new agent to land a listing they typically over promise a seller a high price to win it and then spend money trying to find the magical buyer to purchase it.

A purchase of $209k, $15k rehab, and ARV of $240k doesn't get you any thing back after you factor in all of the closing costs to purchase and to refinance.

So it was 153k for the purchase and 40k for the rehab, I had to come up with the rest. 

I’m a new investor who purchased my first rental property this past year, and I’m eager to learn and grow my portfolio.

I have assisted many investors with their Little Rock purchases. 

Congrats on your first duplex purchase!

If you know where any more notes are that can be acquired for $.20 on the dollar please let me know and I’ll be interested in those that you do not purchase. :-) back in the day and not a big deal flow.. and all land contracts on bare land.. to put it in perspective. :)

I’ve realized I need additional help—someone local, like an assistant.Here’s my idea: I was thinking of purchasing a small piece of property and putting something modest on it, like a single-wide home or a similar small structure.

The more that you talk the more potential buyers see what they are dealing with.Lori you purchased a property that was occupied.
