:) ) We aren't afraid of work, but having our hours defined by someone else is starting to interfere with our existing (non-RE-related) business, our hobbies, friendships, etc.Our current 'other' business is an online directory for Halloween haunted attractions, and we have vetted "Scream Teams" (review groups) across the country that help us create original content for the website.

Great advice @Engelo Rumora My deals just originate from being part of the community...in 2018 I've bought properties from fellow REIA members who were downsizing, a bunch from investors who ran screaming from Toledo when the lead paint ordinance was in full-swing, had several just drop in my lap because everyone I shake hands with knows I buy their headache properties.Last time I checked my spreadsheet I was tracking 22 deals in the Toledo market that I was in process of considering...there's always opportunity, its just a matter of chasing down the deals, sorting the chaff from the wheat, and then making something edible at the end!

That would be a screaming deal, I just don't believe it.3) NOO loans from a bank currently require 25-30% down.

Look carefully and pick the place where you want to live.After you settle on a town, then you go out bargain hunting.I never pay full retail price, but if a house has everything I want for my own residence, it doesn't have to be as huge a bargain as it does when I am buying investments.I consider my residence to be an investment, and it will have to make money for me, but I also want to be comfortable while I live there.Around here, the really screaming deals have some sort of issue that makes them less desirable residences.

I'll run away screaming :-).
