So it really was chance..After getting down here I see that it’s a rapidly growing area...it’s pretty amazing that I haven’t heard of it sooner.

If it is a buy and hold the sooner you rehab the sooner you get tenants that helps offset costs. 

My life and financial situation would be so different if I had made it a priority sooner.

It'll leak sooner or later.Good luck, Kim.

We have a buyer (under contract) with a target close date of June 15th (or sooner) to purchase the house for $125K. 

Congratulations @Joshua Faltysek You have made a solid decision.My advice:I will buy sooner than wait.

Ultimately I'd like to retire in ~10yrs and live 100% off passive income, but I think I can actually get it done sooner than that based on the numbers I'm seeing. 

@Allan C.Interest rates maybe going up sooner than you think.

Also included should be a contingency to give me a 14 day inspection period to give me time to find a cash buyer.If you do not have both of these in the contract and you do not find a buyer you have a good chance of losing your deposit.Here is a sample email that I sent to the agent when submitting my offer: Hello Frank After going through the numbers, I've determined the following offer.Offer Name: MD Investments LLC And/Or AssignAddress: 123 Any Street Any City, Any State 12345Offer Amount: $115, 500Deposit: $500Contingency: This offer is subject to a 14 day home inspection of a contractor of the buyers choice which must meet the buyer’s approval.Closing Agent: TBDClosing Date: Closing to be 30 days or sooner if agreeable to all parties from the mutually executed contract.All cash offer.Hope this helped

I spent (and continue to do so on a daily basis) every day from 2019 to 2021 waking up between 4-5am and hitting the gym.
