@Andre Rice favorite way to find deals is to talk to as many people as I  possibly can about what I do in real estate.

When I started investing in RE, negative cash flow would have effected the type of food I could eat (I would not have starved, but a lot more rice and beans than I desire).  

Thank you for the insult.The Rust firm took in the 'Clifton Terrace Apartments at $750,000.

We did the rice and beans, beans and rice thing for about 3 years and scraped and saved and bought and fixed and rented and so forth until we are now living completely off our rental incomes.

@Grant TaylorThe duplex you own on Shirlwood in the High Point Terrace neighborhood is a solid piece of property to own.  

She responds with a story that she had to unfortunately move her daughter and grand daughter with her due to some spousal abuse(crazy with the ray rice thing going on) and that they are looking to sell and get down to South Carolina and buy a home closer to some family.  

They then just have to dig a hole to access the reconnect point, wether it bein the yard, terrace, or in the road and reconnect.

@Pam Rice it looks like your assumptions bring you to ~12% cash ROI if it's rented with zero vacancy assumption.

@Javon Rice, A transactional lender is a dime a dozen just remember the transactional lender get paid upfront.

@Jonathan Rice …I don't think you can go wrong with getting a license.
