Greetings all,I recently jump started my new career as an real estate investor and I am excited yet nervous. I've always been on the investor side of my life and never been afraid to "Let Money Go". Thats what I learn...

He has a kid fresh out of college with a degree in the stuff.

I just bought a brand new construction home with $303 cash flow after all expenses and debt service.

On the other side, you could have a new build that owner pays no utilities there are no major maintenance issues because the building is brand new and operating expenses ratio could be 30-40%. 

There are 2 brand new neighborhoods there with homes selling at 500k plus; off Findley Rd, in Johns Creek, GA to be exact.

My name is Linda and I'm brand new to this whole real estate business.

With my current financial position, the properties need to have at least 1.2 rent/value ratio or higher, be 75% of value, and $150k or less. if the numbers work out in the near future, i would like to start using hard money lenders for the down payment and closing costs on the properties, and purchase them traditionally. i would like for these properties to also have a 1.0 or higher rent/value, and with my current credit i can get approved for around $150k-$200k, so the property would need to be below that. once i fill up my 10 allowed traditional financing properties, then i would go hard money lenders for down payment / closing costs, and private financing for the long term. by that time though my own portfolio should be able to provide down payments in leu of hard money. your comments and positive feedback / critizism about my strategy going forward is appreciated. i am a brand new real estate investor, finishing up on my first hard money/refinance acquisition now, so im just getting started and looking to grow the portfolio quickly. thank you
