Yes those are the numbers in my head and Im going for the cash flow for my first deal.

This enables you to possibly profit from the property's appreciation even in the event that your initial cash flow is negative.Opportunity Cost: Investing the money you would have saved by making a 20% down payment on a different property might diversify your holdings and raise your total return over time.Appreciation: The return on the lower original investment may surpass the negative cash flow if the property increases at a rate of 5%.Considerations:Market Stability: Although Florida has traditionally seen rapid growth, it's important to take the stability and possible swings of the market into account.

You literally just reached your arm up your rear, sliding it by your head, and dragged it out.

Back in the day before the catastrophic housing crash I noticed the DOM rapidly rising in Detroit. 

@Curtis Harrison - It's pretty easy to manage calendaring in the midterm rental space because you have ample heads up, at least 30+ days, but often more like 2 months, 3 months, etc.

I am currently in my first year of my W2 job (post graduation), and after a year of listening to Bigger Pockets, getting my real estate license, and allocating funds, I have finally decided to dive head first into my first investment.

My W-2 job is in development so I understand I can't jump in head first. 

I'll definitely check out his zoom seminars, thanks for the heads up on that one. 

Maybe it'll be better here:I'm a broker in Oregon and Washington, and I'm trying to wrap my head around wholesaling.

I love where your head is at, that is exciting and a great goal.
