@Caleb Brown Thank you so much, I'm really trying network and be relationships with like minded individuals get the help I seek.

I’ll keep you in mind when it comes to selling on terms.

In order to refinance a home you must have six months title seasoning to use a "New appraisal" but keep in mind only certain lenders and programs allow a cash out refinance at the 6th month mark.

That means 500 calls a day finding motivated discount sellers.Probably other positions too, but that's a start.Are you getting any good finds on the house hack? 

Working with the family friend who knew very little about investing set us back a bunch but once we connected with like minded people and discovered house hacking we were put on the fast track.  

I'll let others chime in on their experiences, but from a motivational perspective, I think attending live events and getting the "conference high" is something that only happens through in-person connections and being in the same room with investors who are eagerly pursuing their real estate/financial goals. 

Also I find it kind of humerus were 15 years ago when i joined BP the FI number was 5k to many up to 10k  now its 15k and up.. ( which is realistic in my mind I never thought 5k was realistic. 

I'd definitely look for networking opportunities in your area to meet like minded individuals.

Keep in mind these are duplexes so double kitchens, appliances, hvacs ect.... greater cost than a single family.

Montgomery Metropolitan Housing has a reputation of being difficult to work with and are slow to pay at times r so I have heard.One thing to keep in mind is that even with section 8, you still get to set your criteria that tenants need to qualify for your unit.
