@Clayton Silva I am very green to REI and lending is one of the biggest black boxes to me, so THANK YOU so much for this post and follow up comments.

Just a bunch of corrupt poeples mostly racist black.

We'd gladly do this all day because we charge the leasing fee and automatically in the black, plus our clients stay with us on average 3.5 years so there ROI on that $250 is easily 10X. 

i want to hear about it all. investors only tell me about the good stuff, i would also like to hear the bad. i know how it goes, not everything is black & white. investors only talk to you when they have good news, brag, or they want something from you. i like to find others to talk to once a week at least. need the motivation/accountability. i like to talk about real estate because it’s interesting.

I only have student loan debtI have a full-time remote jobI have no prior experience in real estate investingMy credit score is high 700'sHere are the details about the property in Zenda,WI:Asking price: $235KIt’s being sold by out-of-state heirsIt needs at least $50K in repairs and updatesThe neighboring house recently sold for $235K (though I don’t have details on its condition before the sale)A family friend who owns a construction company assessed the property and noted the following:Replacement Needed: Furnace, Water Heater, Water Softener, Floor (concrete replacement needed due to unevenness), Roof, GuttersUpdates Needed: 1.5 BathroomsConcerns: Black mold and water leak marks upstairsRemodel Suggestion: The staircase is very steep and narrow; recommended to relocate and extend it into the living spaceAdditional Work: The property slopes downward, allowing rain to flow into the house.

I'm assuming I broke a mirror or walked past a black cat or something and just screwed my own luck somehow.

If I paid off the ARM, I would flip to black cash flow around $450 a month.

Fyi, the discussion went like this, she said I want a wrap around porch, grey siding with white trim, bigger windows, french doors, stainless appliances, black barn doors and shutters, etc., after which I put my foot down hard and said “dark grey or light grey siding?”

As one of the nation's leading SEO experts, I can tell you that their SEO is based on black hat and grey hat SEO  and it is mostly based on low-quality backlinks.

Black Swan event- Covid or economic downturn can you cash float for a year.
