. $75,000 mortgage payment ($100k purchase - 25% down payment) is $400 a month... doubling for expenses means GOI would need to be $800 a month on $100k purchase.2% deals are FANTASTIC cash flowers...

Theses are questions you should consider , imo, before you make a decision.Thanks for the birthday wish and good luck.

It's like buying a 15 year old a Lamborghini for his 16th birthday.

Most of my homes are newer so repairs have been minimal, however I try to invest with an eye on long-term minimal maintenance, so I take that year to swap out carpet with laminate/tile, minimizing yard maintenance (taking out flower beds) since renters just dont maintain yards, painting rooms that are more kosher towards renters vs. homeowners looking for their ideal home and enjoys wacky colors.

We are teaching them to save/invest and they had just enough saved up from holidays, birthdays, and allowance to buy the machines.

I will need to have those trimmed twice a year, plus I will probably ask them to do some flower beds sometime in the future (which will mean pulling weeds too).

(Eagle creek area) I'll actually be down there this weekend if you would have time to meet up sometime sunday (before 6pm since it's her birthday) let me know we could go grab a coffee or something.

I find it funny I see rehabs spend thousands on the house and the yard looks like crap no flowers and most of their idea of landscaping is crappy bushes be different put actual flowers!

It is not all flowers and roses out there, stop thinking it is.Look, take the money you are making, clean up your credit.

The 5th was his 1st birthday.
