I will be more then happy to share my experience since purchasing the property in 2019.Anyone here currently investing in areas outside of SFH/Multi's such as mixed-use & storage b facilities?

Personally for what people charge for these programs I would say you are 1000x  better off taking some courses at a local college, getting a degree and working in real estate to get paid for experience and then do real estate on the side for your own portfolio as well.

We didn't because we needed to provide POS in order to obtain our STR permit being that previous owner had a permit on the property already.

Happy to connect and to answer any questions you may have.Hi Jimmy, are you able to post a specific example on here of a property that hits the 1% rule and positive cash flow buying in 2023 and 2024 (not in 2021 or previous years) with an LTR?.......

What documents do they require, what credit scores do they allow, how do they verify previous rental history, etc.?

Quote from @Chris Seveney: Quote from @Eric Henson: Do you guys ever take the risk of buying a foreclosure at sheriff sale with the previous owner still living in it?

Richmond is a growing market with strong tenant demand from young professionals, families, and college students, depending on the neighborhood.

With Chicago's new Express Permit Program, it's a bit easier to get permits for work that would have previously required architectural drawings. 

The great thing about living in a high cost of living area is that your salary / wages are hopefully also very high.If you are a new college grad, I would focus the next 1-3 years on increasing your salary as much as possible(gain new skills, new certifications, change employers, etc).Once you make more money, you can easily get in a position to buy a property on a more frequent basis.Best of luck!

We've actually previously had two potential buyers come forth, one w/ $20k & one w/ $30k - unsolicited offers that we let get away before we even considered owner financing (or knew what it entailed).
