welcome max...it starts with a vision..

That's a very inspiring story and you've got a great vision, I wish you the best and hope everything continues to go smoothly with your business! 

@Jomar Taveras My opinion is it doesn't really matter what you buy as long as it makes sense with your long term vision, and what you want.

I would like to find a private money partner who values my financial background and expertise while sharing my passion and vision for making money putting together mutually beneficial deals.  

I found myself eager, as everyone else, learning about wholesaling, rehabbing and flipping, to build up enough reserve to flip and hold for steady cashflow, depending on your vision. 

@Casey HunterThat's an impressive overview of your long term goal projection and it shows a well thought out plan, coupled with your vision of the RE marketplace.

@Dawn Anastasi- Wow, this is amazing for the price paid and that you have the vision to transform it into a higher income producing property.Congratulations and best wishes in seeing this project through completion.

As someone new to real estate, I am currently building my education base, for a vision to be successful in real estate as a second income, as well as in the future, give back to this forum and a new person like me.I am here to learn and read about other investor's experience.

As most investors, they're just focused on the $$ bottom line and don't have the vision to see the bigger potential.  

But they should have some experience and solid vision for their RE business model to be able to use virtually free money for 12-18 month (really 3-4% transfer fee).
