I almost exclusively sell bank foreclosures for a large asset management company, and I also do a lot of marketing for wholesale deals.

It would be a good idea to assess your tolerance to risk and then plan something like that, but using a heloc is going to be around 9-11% in this market so to pay something off with lower interest rate to borrow more might not make much sense.

Quote from @Daniel Tanasa: Hello Terry, If you're looking to find houses that are in pre-foreclousure you can use a website like www.foreclosure.com and you can get the list of properties and start marketing to them. 

Alternatively, investing in money markets is another consideration.

@Emily ShinHouse hacking a multi-family property is an excellent way to start investing in real estate, especially in a market like Columbus, Ohio, which offers affordability and growth potential.

I use my license for multiple activities: Of course- comps, when buying and when selling, tax data- to see what I am about to pay when i own the home ( for long term holdings), check the DOM (days on the market) for the subdivision I am either buying on, or when I plan on selling, etc. 

We have 17 properties and the long term we do on ACH, but frankly, ACH set up at our bank is so cumbersome that I stopped using it for the mid-term market.  

Start by analyzing cash flow and market demand for each property to decide which one to rent out.

What market?

Hey everyone, I came across an off-market property in Central Phoenix and wanted to get some thoughts.
