This is from personal experience, the housing authority is the problem.

I want to start smart and scale up as I learn the ropes, but I’m personally struggling to narrow down which area to focus on.If you’ve done this before, what advice would you give someone like me?

Is your goal to use being an agent for your own personal investments or actively try and grow your agent business to eventually leave your W2?

Either way, $600 in cash flow should actually help your personal DTI if you go for conventional financing on a primary again. 

To flip right is about a lot more than just renovating and *pow* $-rains down on a person.

The owner was motivated due to personal circumstances and wanted to avoid the hassle of listing the property publicly.To negotiate the deal, I started by understanding the seller’s priorities.

It wasn’t a massive deal—our expected assignment fee was $10,000—but when you’re growing a business, every opportunity matters.Everything seemed to be moving smoothly until the title search revealed a major roadblock: the mortgage discharge couldn’t be cleared because the person who needed to sign off was deceased.

Many banks limit personal loan amounts.

I am impressed this conversation is still going.  

The title company will handle clearing the title but won’t manage personal agreements.
