This is a numbers game so you may have to take an aggressive approach towards negotiating several deals before one of them actually works out.

Spending too much time on analyzing one deal will put you out of the game on too many other ones...

That's why I'm asking for more opinions from people who have been in the game longer. 

This isn't analyzing deals, this is just playing a video game.

If appreciation is not there, however, it seems like a potentially long waiting game to see if your $60k investment today returns anything meaningful in the long run. 

Most of the "Sub-To" community members I've met on the journey are the most overzealous people in the game.

Sorry for the long winded back story, but end game is to put a A frame on the existing 20x40' stem wall above near where I"m standing, and put some stairs into a drop down area below for chairs/fire-pit overlooking the river canyon below (but out of view) under where the drone is flying.

It's a game-changer where you can buy a $1,000,000 property with $35,000 down, you can build equity while keeping living costs low.2️⃣ Partnering Up:Real estate is a team sport.

Things like your car (if used for business) and home office expenses could be game-changers, especially in your first year.
