I have put about $20,000 dollars into the property, which is a substantial amount for me at this point.

Currently I have a friend that may want to rent a home from me for a year and if I did buy the house as owner occupancy I would have him live in that house and me at my current address.

The tenant called me at 11:30 to confirm the meeting at 12 and showed up at 1:44.

You can set it up to remember that all expenses on credit card "A" or bank account "A" are to be associated and tagged with property 1234 and just review them to make sure they are accurate. its a pretty nice time saver, needs only a couple of minutes a month for my 2 properties and then churns out a handy Schedule-E sheet for me at the end of the year for me to provide to my CPA.

I found a good mentor and I'm sure i'll find others in different areas, as I go along, so that's fine for me at the moment.If you end up doing it, let us know how it goes!

Please feel free to contact me at any time, if there is anything I can help you with.

Buyer gets the rest of the meat on the bone.

I fully understand that my youth/inexperience places me at an initial disadvantage, at least in terms of attracting investors, and imbues a level of doubt to any claims remotely sensational.

I would be a just tad bit more diplomatic...though not much.I'd just say, "I am interested in buying her house if she's willing to sell it to me at a great price.

@Aida Rivera I ended up waiting for the wholesaler's assistant to meet me at the house that same day and was able to walk through and check it out.
