Hello Bigger pockets just dropped the blog link attached with current hedge funds buying single family homes .

Don't get me started with costs you're not anticipating.Once you drop this unrealistic "dream", and focus on what's in front of you.

4) Keep my money in a guaranteed savings account making 4.5%, until rates drop more or something changes, and the numbers are better to make a move?

Sit tight and wait till rates drop.

So, for anyone who is further along in their journey that came across a book or content that was helpful to developing these skills, please drop a comment!

On a conventional, you can request the PMI be dropped in 1-2 years (if you have enough equity) for the cost of an appraisal.    

What I'm planning: buy and hold the property, brush and clean it up with intent to hold until cost of funds drops a little in 4-6 months.

I’m dropping one off tomorrow for another tenant.

If heat goes out in the winter we drop off several units, so they can be placed in different parts of the house - including every room with water like kitchen and bathrooms.We also have dehumidifiers, carpet blowers, shop vacs, puddle-sucker pumps, extra hoses, extra sump pumps with battery pack, squeegees, and portable AC units ready to deploy. 

Sundays see if they need Sunday newspaper drop off.
