It is a great way to get your foot in the door of investing and meeting great people in the field.

Keep learning about your strategy, how others have had success with it, and where things have gone wrong for others in the past.Daily action: Keep putting one foot in front of the other, every. single. day.

The Southern Nevada Water Authority has a landscaping program where they’ll reimburse the owner $3 per square foot up to 10,000 square feet to replace landscaping with water conserving plants.

Over $400/square foot in rural TN!

But it can be difficult for one who does not reside in the foot print to get those local banks to loan to them.. 

You could provide a receipt showing you rented a carpet cleaner, but it is much easier for someone to call into question DIY quality of work.In my experience a professional will clean a 2000 square foot house in under two hours and it is usually completely dry in less than 24 hours.

Also look at any restrictions on sq foot of buildings to square foot of dirt--meaning the vacant seems buildable dirt might not be as buildable as you think (sometimes upscale areas are larger lots than other areas by zoning law). 

Welber I started software early with only 2 properties knowing that we were going to get more properties under our belt as we went on, we wanted to start off on an organized foot. 

But unless you're buying a mansion, that's pretty hard to find.So what we did is we found a 2500 square foot 4 bedroom / 2 bath house that few people were interested in because it was too big square-foot-wise for people looking for 3/2s and had too few rooms for people looking for 5/3s.Then we resized all of the rooms to be able to added one bedroom and one bathroom.
