I'm Ashley, and I live in the DFW area.

Right now I'm living in Baltimore, still working 9-5 W-2.

The person worked for H&R Block, now works for TurboTax Live and is being honest about their skills: NOT QUALIFIED.

I have about 8K to start investing, which I know is not a lot, but with 3 kids living in SoCal, we are already pinching pennies. 

After adding an extra bedroom and bathroom and rehabbing the house, I was well over budget.

(They did multiple inspections, also came for several full afternoons to just poke around the house while we were living there.) 

I went owner occupied either conventional or FHA.  3-5% down at the time you only had to live there 1 year and then you can move out or move on. 

Living?

I live in the Metro Atlanta area (near Gwinnett, Walton, and Rockdale counties) and am open to opportunities in other areas as well.I’m just starting my real estate investing journey with a focus on wholesaling.

With an extra vacancy or a maintenance issue or an extra turnover, this is definitely a negative cash flow producing investment.So when you say the rent growth and value growth have exceeded your expectations, I would love to have you respond as to how that is possibly the case.
