You can also leverage stable income for creative financing and explore BRRRR in markets like Rochester to build equity and cash flow.

I was determined and wanted something that I could sustain for the long term for my family's livelihood and control the effort I put in and the results I got from that effort.I specialize in sourcing properties for fix and flip investors nationwide (wholesaling, but with real-world experience and closed profitable deals for myself and my investor partners) with a roadmap to acquire rental properties as finances permit.A lot of our deals are currently coming through organic search as I have a background in substantial traffic generation through search engine optimization and organic means.

@Julie J.My recommendation would be to wait until you can afford a home with traditional financing.

In addition, if i used fixed rate financing, my biggest expense is fixed.  

Here’s the bottom line:  Long term success as a real estate investor or real estate business owner requires knowledge of (1) real estate principles (2) real estate finance and (3) real estate law.  

Cash out refi will be tough due to the price, not sure if there is a local bank you can reach out for the financing.

A duplex, triplex, or fourplex is ideal because the more units, the more financing options banks may offer.

How did you finance this deal?

We don't hande things like, finances and payouts, marketing on a direct booking site, leasing, etc.

No contingencies for financing.
