Is your free time better spent managing your properties or enjoying yourself? 

I also enjoy underwriting multifamily and coming up with investment strategies, as it will be my next big move as well! 

I've personally enjoyed quite a bit of success in certain areas within these neighborhoods as they contain attributes and barriers not present in other similarly priced Philadelphia neighborhoods. 

@Scott Miller I bought my first non-performing note over 11 years ago and have enjoyed investing in this niche ever since.

That's the exact reason my wife and I enjoy living in WV.

@Kayla Govier one of the groups that I've enjoyed attending over the years was ABNG. 

Enjoy your journey into real estate investing!

(generally takes 60-90 days to close an assumption)I purchased my most recent primary residence with a an assumable VA loan and am saving about $1,100 per month on my mortgage payment compared to a loan written at today's rates and I am also enjoying about 2.5x the principal paydown per month as well!!

Research shows that 73% of our enjoyment of our vacation happens prior to ever showing up.

The strategy you chose depends mostly on what you will enjoy most and will be good at.
