Can't wait to hear more about this deal, will you be a the pcb investor meetup on Wed Sep 4th??

I'm from there, and the only time I ever stayed at a STR was for my wedding night, in those days it was a "bed and breakfast".

We are coming over to Dallas Wed, Thurs., Fri. this week - shame we are going to miss the meet up, but are looking forward to even working with more local companies.

Between the wedding and a variety of other excuses we ended up filing for an extension on our 2020 taxes but with my work as a wildland firefighter in the summer keeping us so busy we've now missed the deadline.

Ideally I'll re-sign for a third year (whoa) and tackle this in the spring when I have another year's savings under my belt, but I am prepared to move quickly if need be, much to the chagrin of my fiance who wants me to focus more on wedding planning.Ultimately, the goal is to go slow and see how we take to the concept of landlording. 

About the property:3 bed, 2bath, 1700sq ft single family Tudor Style home w/ attached 2car garage on 1.5 acres with 150ft of lake front on a small no-wake lakeIt has been gutted to the studs with electrical and plumbing rough-ins approved by the county, new windows, and new roof (2yrs)Purchase price: $90k (cash)Estimated rehab: $135k (will be walking through with contractors in a few days to get multiple bids)ARV: $260-275kDepending on the actual total investment and ARV, we plan to either flip it or BRRRR as a short-term rental (with small estate wedding venue potential) If a flip, I would like to see $40k+ but I am ok with this not being a home run being my first one, mostly want to learn and not loose my behind!

A doctor and an engineer and you're newly wed and you're buying them a house?

I'll be in Chicago this weekend for a wedding and will be available Sunday (2/19) and if there's someone who's willing to meet up and discuss in more detail, I would greatly appreciate it.

Lines of credit will be helpful in situations where there will be repeated money outlays, but the amounts may not be known upfront and/or the vendors may not accept credit cards, and in situations that need large money deposits – weddings being one good example.

I started picking up gig work and focusing more on videography,web design, production, wedding dj, during/after the pandemic.
