We're not aware of anyone that's made a purchase from them work in over 3 years:(Most of the incentives in Detroit are targeted to owners that will live in their home or developers targeting large projects.

The alternative is to go with a single-family home, live in it for about 1.5 years, and then purchase another home while renting out the first one.

I'd highly recommend house hacking in your local market since you're in one of the highest cost of living areas in the US, especially if you're renting currently and planning on staying in the area for 5-10 years.It sounds sexy to go out and invest out of state for your first property.

Hello everyone, Quick question, I currently live in California and have my entity set up in California to do deals in state.

I realize people are trying to make a living, but anyone who cold calls me is the last person I'd use for any transaction (plus I have people for that!).  

House hacking, short/mid-term rentals, co-living, sober living, or finding ways to add value are where the best opportunities are right now. 

In the unlikely event that you are the exception that proves the rule, the rare 18 year old who can actually generate a serious income by wholesaling real estate, your day to day will look like the following: - You will door knock, cold call, send mailers, and otherwise create lists of people who are in the most desperate moments of their lives. 

I think he's in the process right now so I'm not sure how it's turned out, but last time I spoke with him it seemed that it was going well.I always tell people looking to do co-living that there is a certain amount of risk that you have to be willing to take on.

And that’s fine it’s not like I will out live the depreciation.
