@James Thompson, take a look at 204 Cherry Drive, Melbourne Beach.  

My recommendation would be to do a deep dive into your deal analysis and see if the numbers truly make sense. 

Then you could use the 3-5% down on a house and use the leftover for reno.If you're interested in doing a flip, I'd look on the outer edges of Charlotte or towns surrounding that are within driving distance.

This only takes 5 min a day, and is super fun to nerd out and do a few deep dives when I get really curious. 

With that said - markets near feeder cities are good, drive to markets, etc.

The truck you bought will instantly lose value the moment you drive it off the lot, it will depreciate over the years due to the miles you rack up on it and the normal wear and tear of a vehicle.

FYI:  What if the owner of the rental property unfortunately has an accident while driving their car.  

Here are some of the driving factors I'm thinking about when deciding whether or not to move forward with this bedroom addition at my duplex:Unit Layout. 

Keeping documents organized with cloud storage solutions like Google Drive or Dropbox is also highly beneficial.For compliance, using templates for meeting minutes and maintaining a compliance calendar can help manage important dates for filings, renewals, and meetings.

Pick a market drill deep into that market, learn the market and success will follow.
