I've seen countless FB discussions where some people (usually always young white people ironically) stirring this pot by saying things like how a black family simply cannot buy a home outside of the traditionally African American areas and especially places like Waukesha county, which is complete rubbish and I've seen first hand examples, not a whole lot but some, where it has worked out just fine.

I'm not suggesting Debbie spearhead this but I can tell you there are countless of other Associations that are! 

We've done countless renovations in the past year; some examples are: new stairs, new electric in the upstairs, new electric service, walled in 3rd bedroom, all new low-e argon windows, moved front door to have more curb appeal, new flooring in the upstairs, etc.

I've analysed countless properties and was afraid of never actually pulling the trigger on my first deal so I started making offers on the best SFHs I could find in my area and now have a house under contract.I'm coming to the forums today to see what you think of my first deal and if I'm crazy for starting to have second thoughts and feeling like I should back out.  3 bed, 2 bath 1156 sq/ft for $67,50020% down on a 30yr loan at 5% = $290/monthproperty taxes - $1700/yrassuming insurance is $1300/yr$4500 on repairsMonthly rent could be around $850I appreciate any advice.Thanks!

hey folks; 1st-time poster here.i began an interest in RE investing about 3 mos ago. in that time, i've watched countless vids, read countless articles & how-to's, been to a few local meetups (REIA & the sort), started to study this amazing site, etc. i'm particularly interested in beginning my ventures in "wholesaling". it seems to be the best fit for my situation currently.one issue i face: i'm pretty-much brand new to social media. i started accts on several SM platforms and spend a good deal of my time trying to learn each particular medium - i know almost nothing about (insta, twit, LI, etc). i've been told repeatedly they're good to have for marketing.another issue: much of the investing information i have gathered thus far comes from people outside of my state (those pesky courts, right?)

I've offered on countless properties and come up empty - I've also been successful on a few; all it takes is one, metaphorically speaking.

I've got 7 years, and I don't plan on messing up "because I have time to fix my mistakes" as I've heard countless older people say.

I have immersed myself in this and already spent countless hours coming up with a path and a plan.

I'm about 2 months, 7 books, countless podcast episodes, and a few sleepless nights staring at the ceiling into my journey towards financial freedom with RE Investing.

May seem like a small number (this only reflects the town's SFR, not condos or apts) but if you consider the larger market of FRBO, and the countless number of long-term ongoing rentals that don't come back on the market for years at a time, the total number of rental homes is exponentially greater.The biggest struggle for a leverage investor is making sure the PITI is covered with enough left over to keep a solid capex reserve.
