Quote from @Marvin Michel: Hi Marvin,It looks like a solid class C minus rental with 1 br 1 bath.I doubt this will bring top of the market rents, but if you can attract 2 long term renters who get along well it looks like easy money.What I see is it looks dumpy from the street view, but its in a a pretty nice neighborhood of well kept up, MAINLY White painted houses.Maybe blend it to the neighborhood by painting it white vs. what looks like the teal-ish color so popular in Mexico for homes (although maybe that's you target market and if so leave it).It's not going to pull top of the market rents though, because for a class C minus there is no dedicated bedroom and the bathrooms in the competition are probably better.If this were in Austin (with it's high demand right now) it would rent.The giant patches on the inside walls, the shotgun floor plan, the lack of a dedicated bedroom, the bathrooms seem less than competitive.

I love to see your dedication to learning and taking steps toward real estate investing.

There is a facebook group dedicated to wholesaling and it is like this guilty pleasure of mine.

I've got a project manager in place (because I can only dedicate part time hours to the actual rehabbing process), and I'm shopping several different properties in the area.I was really surprised when I started doing some hunting and seeing 30, 40, 50 thousand difference in LP and Tax-assessed value here in Fort Wayne.

Need to have deep pockets and buy right in the appreciation cycle for those equity gain only markets to have a chance at working.People employing this strategy should only have a small percentage of the overall portfolio dedicated to it.

So I know how dedicated I must be to become successful in this career path.I've learned about this forum from the podcast and have been listening to it ever since I found out, about a month ago.

You have some amazing dedication to doing a job right.  

Meaning, you should dedicate one credit card to all buisness transactions and have a seperate bank account.

I am in a similar situation, and i have to admit, having a fully dedicated partner is huge!

MOTIVATED DEDICATED!!
