The “Big deals” are…You have to buy something you don’t already own, not pay off debt, renovate a home you own, or build on land you already own.You have to spend all the “cash” you receive.You have spend more than your net selling price.You can never receive or have control of the cash, you need a QI PRIOR to selling. 

Are you thinking about doing more buy and holds or fix and flip then sell?

You’re not at a real decision point today, so buy yourself time and see how long your luck will last.

I still have clients buying in Vegas, but it's not as common due to cashflows being hard to come by with the traditional 25% down financing.

I buy and sell and also buy and hold in Pittsburgh and this is about the average.

- No it can be any type of investment property- If I did buy a duplex here in CA could I live in one side while renting out the other? 

You may pay 1.5m and up for a good one, likely more if parking and balconies, but the play is to buy a multi and then wait and in a few years, turn them into condos and sell them separately - that's how you make the money there.

I know it was popular when you could use it to buy yourself an EU passport.

This is my first time and I'm buying a fixer upper that needs a new compressor, roof and a total kitchen remodel.
