If you see work crews reaching out, ask the person in charge of securing housing where they go looking.

For example is a personal loan from a bank is 7.5 % that you could use as a down payment (after its seasoned), and your 401k loan is 4.5% but the 401k is expected to return 7.5% per year the money you save on one end you miss out on the other end basically and if your 401k returns are 20%, then you lose out significantly. 2.

I personally learned I enjoy local investing in residential properties.

Eliminate debt, establish a budget, and save.

I know a couple of the Realtors on the team at Suncoast Property Management, Acquisitions & New Construction Manager, Gretchen Kornutik, REALTOR® - Good person.
