If you have access to private equity then sure, but if you want to buy properties yourself then at best you are looking at 1-2 per year if you have really good income. 3.

@Joshua ParsonsI've been dipping my toes into the whole "buy a house for $1" thing that Italy is doing.

It might be worth talking to a lawyer but not sure if it's small claims or worth it.Also, you might already have all of these things but for future prevention:- smart thermostat (so you receive alerts when the inside temperature dips below whatever preset you have)- Minut (or similar device) would also alert you to the inside (and outside) temperatures; for example, I have 2 devices inside the house and outside on the hot tub deck.

Investment Info:Large multi-family (5+ units) buy & hold investment.

I agree that some of these smaller towns have great buys and strong rents. 

I would build the big house and do a cool deck out towards the creek.

(if the buyer wants a more solid commitment)Once a buyer has spent money they are somewhat vested in buying the property and that gives additional negotiating power to the seller.

Hey everyone, Who here is looking to buy or even start their own cleaning service business?

I am a buy and hold investor.

(The Black Friday sale on the Bigger Pockets bookstore was where I did my own Christmas shopping so my family knew what to ‘buy’ for me!).
