Because of this I have seen the real opportunity in realestate investing and want to continue down this path.What you want to learn- i want to learn how to analyze deals as well as how to estimate total rehab costs.Roadblocks (if any) that you're currently running into- my biggest road block right now is analysis paralysis, I would like to blame it on financial reasons but the paralysis has made me hesitant to truly exhaust all of my financial options.

@Kase Knochenhauer hahaha when I was in a frat in college we had to run our dryer non stop in the basement with the exhaust vent off to prevent our pipes from bursting.

In bathrooms, use regular white drywall, with semi gloss paint and a good exhaust fan.

Sorry for the long text , and good luck to everyone that has the fortitude the withstand the storm.

For 3 years, every weekend, when I wasn't working my main job, I shopped deals, exhausting every broker in the market, and I never bought a deal.But, I got a great education and I learned what a good deal looked like and felt like.

The job market in Seattle is strong, and it's exhausting to find a good place to live - both options are affordable and I don't have any liabilities. 

Are you able to withstand capex or negligible cash flow for an appreciation play? 

I might end up with standing and stuck water!!! 

Just make sure you have your ducks in a row and have exhausted all avenues before you go this route. 

I have always provided stove/oven, built in microwave/hood exhaust, and dishwasher.
