The next one was also a corporate cash buyer and after our second call, the acquisition manager confessed to me that he just got the job and asked me if I could train him on how to evaluate a deal!!!

Your plan to house hack a multifamily property in Indianapolis is a great strategy to start building equity and learning the ropes with manageable risk.

By carefully managing the scope and cost of renovations, you can maximize the return on your investment.3.

Since you mentioned you're working 9-5, I’d suggest look into turnkey rental and considering property managers to help manage you’re property.

Recently, management changed it so both loans can be made with one payment versus two separate transactions. 

Hi @Gil Canfu definitely there are many places in DFW where you can invest in a good rental property.I am not sure where you are at, but if self managed you should start in cities with good proximity to where you live.All the corridor between Princeton to Saginaw has good deals but there are many others things to consider as I mentioned previously.

You can manage your risk. 

I graduated from college in May, and I am currently doing business development (sales) for a property management company while studying for my RE license.

@Colin Ford recommend getting experience with your RI duplex before going OOS.You should DIY manage the unit next door, so you LEARN about property management, the goog, the bad and the ugly.Then you'll be so much better prepared to invest OOS!

I have a question and would really appreciate your input.I’ve done a couple of fix-and-flip projects in the past using hard money lenders, but I’ve noticed that their fees and interest rates significantly cut into my profits.
