In our experience we have learned to have it be a layered approach, for asset protection. 

Is getting a job a good strategy, or are there other approaches you recommend?

Yeah this approach can work with rentals in the 1% range.

Overall I was more impressed with Tenant Turner's technology and their all included approach to pricing.  

Chris - Did you approach the seller about seller financing in any capacity?

This approach helps ensure that buyers have a clear understanding of what they are purchasing, reducing the likelihood of surprises and issues later in the process.Of course, this is market location and cycle dependant.

Currently, the data suggests that the next few months, with winter approaching, could indeed be challenging due to the high inventory levels.

Accepting Section 8 can be a great way to add stability and I have found success with this approach.

Either, proceed with a value add approach and structure a refi/rehab short term loan that provides renovation funds in order to reposition the property and push rents.

Posting the same question in multiple forums.After reading through, I learnt the lessons and applied it as regards questions I would normally ask about my interest in wholesaling as a strategy to starting in the Real Estate Industry, I realize a whole lot of persons had same questions and I learnt from the Responses on the various discussions.It also changed my perspective in the way I approached the vets in the house, right now I just want to connect, I mean we are seeking financial freedom and for most of us that is time to do what we want and if I don't have regards for your time by being valuable to you, then I don't regard you enough.
