Business is good and we have a new law in PA that a Wholesaler has to be a licensed Real Estate Agent. 

Ft)For ARV, it is best to have an experienced real estate agent find comps for you to determine a safe number to work off of. 

Better to keep rent 5-10% below market, but keep a tenant long-term.If you can handle all this, you MIGHT be ready to be a real estate mogul.Otherwise, you may want to get out of your own way and hire a PMC to manage your property better.Let us know how this goes before you continue dreaming about anything else:)

@Simon HorowitzNavigating the New York real estate market can be challenging, but with a focused strategy and strong networking, you can make significant progress.

I know this is an old thread.I'd like to get a more recent opinion of these apps.I think the DFD options is very interesting.What we want to do is endorse one of these for our Real Estate Club in Greenville, SC and have a contest for our members to see who can find the most deals with the software.Maybe try and get a rep from the company we choose to come and speak at one of our in person meeting and also negotiate a longer trial window if possible for our members.

We plan to stay in this house for more than 5 years unless another great opportunity arises, but maybe it is best to allocate a bigger portion of savings to our real estate investment savings account than our home improvement savings account for the first few years.

I am new to real estate investing and BP, and I am excited to learn more about this space!

Hey Colin, it’s fantastic to see someone your age diving right into the real estate world.. reminds me of when a buddy of mine bought his first duplex in Omaha.

Knowing the average bP buy and hold investor this type of information would be for advanced investors that deal in the back end of real estate not the front end like most who just want to buy a house for under market rehab refi rent or flip. 

Starting real estate investing early is a smart move, especially while leveraging your military benefits.
