But at the end of the day, I think most of us want to provide a quality place to live for tenants and if you can do so while still making a solid return and simultaneously creating less work for yourself down the road...that's a win all around.  

Hello All,I've been racking my brain on how I can provide value to an investor as a RE agent while learning negotiation skills and simultaneously build my knowledge base of wholesaling investing.

I would also use at least couple different investment strategies and work simultaneous on opportunities in all those areas.

Do you run them simultaneously and pick the top candidate based on your criteria?

I'd start out with one, then after it's rented, get another, and after it's rented, then start looking at multiple properties simultaneously. 

You will also need to call various title companies in the county that the property is in and ask if they will do a double or simultaneous closing?

I also have another contractor work simultaneously to speed it up to cut the critical path of a PERT.If you are a prompt paying employer they like to work with you.

So if you can qualify with both payments now, you are good to go.For "b", for the cash out refi, you will want to do this simultaneously with your new purchase mortgage. 

I was planning to keep the job while simultaneously connecting my license to a brokerage.

Purchase them separately, but simultaneously.
