So plan is to ride out the same way.

With this strategy it's important to have cash budgeted in order to ride out a year or two of low returns/even negative returns as I rehab, but if done right leads to big profits in years 3-5 with appreciation easily in the 6 figure range and great eventual cash flow thanks to rent increases.

While riding around town running errands I keep my eyes peeled for unmaintained houses or vacant houses.

Hailing from good ol' New Jersey, I am new to the world of real-estate investing and I felt the timing couldn't be better to kick-start this journey (new decade -new hopes and aspirations) Presently, my goal is to build a portfolio of MFH's over the course of the next 10 years.

Hi Paul,Time the market, ride the wave correctly and get out before you even have the chance of falling (because most people who fall get eaten by sharks as tasty Seal Meat, and the Dolphins are too far out to save you--playing happily in the sun.)

If you can ride that fine line of "persistent" without being "obnoxious," call the attorneys office to get updates.

I've spoke with a few individuals recently who are doing the same thing through Solar, hail programs, and master renter's policies. 

If the cash flow works, then let it ride until you are satisfied the value is where you want it to be before you sell it.

It's an easy bike ride from where I live (near goat and compass) thanks Oliver!

Where else can you brewery hop with your dogs, eat the best ever Thai food from within a hut placed amongst gardens and flowing fountains, catch a ghost sighting within the historical downtown then run out and ride a killer wave and probably be greeted by some dolphins while you're at it!
