I decided to do this because I always was fascinated by real estate since a child, and I believe in taking calculated risks.

I took a spin over to your profile and it is fascinating!

Fascinated by tax liens and would love to learn to be a hard money lender, but all in due time :)Thank you so much for all the help from Bigger Pockets Community.

In 1988, Michael Weiss, in his fascinating book The Clustering of America, introduced the idea that neighborhoods can be grouped in terms of lifestyles, consumer spending, demographics, and socioeconomic variables.

This is fascinating to me, especially because two educated people seem to have such strong opinions on each side.On another note (and as an explanation as to why I want to set up my LLC this way), please look at my plan below.

i'm fascinated by this strategy, but i'm still a little hazy on the refi portion.Also...So is this the gist of the strategy analysis:purchase cost + rehab cost + holding cost + closing costs < ARV x 75% (post refi) AND property mush CF at $XXX/month?

Not having knowledge of real estate investing isn't the end of the world I hear,I'm from Los Angeles but I travel a lot over the United States for work and I am so fascinated by real estate and the financial freedom it gives to those like myself.

Fascinating, so this is why the big players do a value push and sell or cash out to trade up every few years. 

I found all this very fascinating and exciting but being young, and lacking money I found the prospect of RE very intimidating and focused on what I was comfortable with which is technology.  

I'm fascinated by the prospect of doing this as a career and learning more and more every day.
