Dont go to the regular retail realtor who only deals with FHA or conventional mortgages like 80%+ of the people.

I've bought a ton of homes pre-foreclosure and at auction, happy to be a resource on that stuff, plus we just launched Bid Pirate, which is the one place online for NH, where you can see all the upcoming foreclosure auctions in one spot - you can learn a lot from the regulars at the auctions........ get after it, sister!

On paper the cheap houses look great, but the reality is they are harder to manage, have higher turn over and cost a lot more time and money.Buying before you retire is a good idea because once you retire, your ability to borrow money is going to decrease as you don't have a regular income from a job.As you want to fix houses up, why not buy a house that needs a bit of work, live in it while doing the renos and then move when you sell it. 

I also advise participating in regular meetings with them.

I'm renovating a studio apartment with limited space. Any input on the appliances noted above would be appreciated. I didn't list ventless dryers as I haven't read very many good things about them. I used to have one ...

.- Tenant submitted a work order for low water pressure in 2 bathrooms- Tenant submitted a work order because the garage door doesn't close all the way and left a 2-3 inch gap at the bottom- Owner initially refused to address either work order- Owner demanding the tenants place furniture pads on each piece of furniture- Owner calling multiple times to speak through the work orders, asking when they've been scheduled, calling a couple days later requesting the invoices- Owner calling because they want to access their storage in the basement so they can remove several pieces of furniture being stored- Owner now emailing requesting multiple property inspections throughout the lease cycle- Owner questioning my experience and relative PM knowledge because I'm not following up with her in a timely manner (the following day after the work order)Keep in mind, this is 2 weeks after the tenants had moved in and the tenants are very happy in the home.This is something we see on a regular basis.

With 100 properties owned, with a regular property management you're still looking at at least 5 hours a week to manage them if you have good systems in place. 

We would regularly get emails with requests from new Kiavi staff or partners we had not previously been introduced to.

Most cities have regular real estate meet ups for investors which is often the easiest way to meet local flippers.

It seems that to be on Section 8 you need to look for a job on a regular basis.
