Houston has 3 very active REIA groups you should check out and get involved with, RICH, Wealth and Quest IRA.Set some goals and stick with them!

If all these units needed was carpet and paints and a few fixtures and other items then 3,000 a door might be reasonable.If it's a gut job on the units plan on 11,000 to 13,000 a door for stud up rehab.With you Clara all the way in Singapore I do not know how you could attempt to take on a rehab of this level.

Today I read a great article written by BP Member @Rich Urban on his site.

Reading things on here as led me to believe that even though I'm not "rich" I can still turn my life around and live good later.Thanks for all the responses and keep them coming!

Tyler also, I and my children have been findinga lot of value reading biggerpockets articlesA few examples :~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2013/07/25/making-1-million-in-real-estate-investing-enough-rich/www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2013/07/24/ready-to-get-started-investing-in-real-estate/ www.biggerpockets.com/renewsblog/2013/07/23/wholesaling-strategy-beginner-experienced-investor/

I read "Rich Dad Poor Dad" about a month ago and it gave me a new purpose in life after pursuing a career in education, and then really not wanting to pursue a career in education.

Your story reminds me of something that the guy who wrote Rich Dad, Poor Dad would have experienced.

I found BP not long ago and have used this site extensively as it provides rich info on RE.

If it were that easy to just continuously double your money in a short period of time I would already be filthy rich!

I like the rich dad poor dad series.
