I was told that offerings that we see on sites like fundrise may be inexperienced or not the best syndicators that may prey on inexperienced investors who don't have the ability to participate in syndications because of a lack of substantial capital and that capable syndication operators would not resort to posting on sites like that because they have a group of investors that trust them and they don't have to share a fee to the site.

So having a proper scalable strategy, getting your numbers correct, and ability to stick to it in spite of short term pain is what makes you wealthy over 10-15 years.

The issue is that if I choose to invest in LTRs not in Coastal Carolina, I lose the ability to monitor and check in on the property without a very long commute.

It puts the tenant on notice that the next step is filing for eviction which will create a public record as soon as its filed and potentially impact their ability to secure alternate housing.

I disclosed to my lender that the Wholesaler was making 5k so then it made me look like I was lying to my lender when the HUD clearly showed the Wholesaler was making 15 KI recently had another transaction where a Wholesaler renegotiated a lower price after the fact.I’m assuming that where the wholesalers have that ability to make that extra is that they are naming the price that the buyer is willing to pay and not necessarily naming the dollar amount that they are assigning their contract for so this gives them the leeway to keep trying to get a lower price from the original seller, even after the fact of going through the motions of transferring their rights to the property to a new buyer.

Being a "single mom of 2 toddlers" does not restrict your ability to travel.

Remember, your ability to finance your next deal will be affected by your debt to income ratio, so as long as you have the debt you won’t be making deals anyway.  

Unfortunately, I haven't seen the ability to do this. 

This situation keeps a property appraisal low, which then limits the ability to hire an agent like me to resell on the open market for anywhere close to what an investor has paid. 

Personally, I'd go with 2 bedrooms, but post the ability to lock 1 bedroom at a reduced rent for 1 bedroom rental.
