You can take as many shots at someone as you like but you only have two bullets a day to vote for them. :)

I'm a beginner who is almost feeling comfortable enough (educated/prepared) to take my first shot at a rehab.

I don't know cost details yet, and obviously that's a huge factor, but I was just curious if anyone here had given it a shot and how effective it was.

I still hope the investors give the Upstate a shot!

It was a long shot but I wrote a long (well written) letter and they sent the check back.

Not even close, not by a long shot, no matter what time of day.

Might as well give it a shot.

I agree with our fellow investors , it's a good deal for first shot I see that you want to invest in your back yard , I think we have a better cap rates here in Jacsonville FL on 100+ Rentals that we have here but they are cash buys so take under consideration the cost for that loan in yours.

I am going to give it a shot.

But, most beginners don't.Your best shot of finding a deal is "driving for dollars," as Brandon terms it, looking for vacant/rundown properties in good neighborhoods with great school systems, then contacting the owners, who may have been considering selling, but not taken any action, yet.Another key is to pick an area and focus on that, getting to know local values like the back of your hand.
