Once you've done your own analysis and supplemented it with the home inspection, add a comfortable contingency (20% or so) to the total cost and run the numbers, see if you can negotiate the seller lower based on what you found during home inspection, and if the deal no longer makes sense you can just walk away. 

My goal is to get to 200 units in 5 years and have rental income to supplement my employment income.If you have, or know anyone that has, connections to any Meetups, I'd love to get in contact with them.Thanks!

I decided that getting my real estate license would be very beneficial in my future investing and hopefully supplement my income as well.  

Even if it could become a great supplemental income, that's fine with us.

I'm leaving my full time job next week and considering investing in a mobile home park using part of my investment porfolio in that I'm only getting 5 - 10% return on my investments.I want to establish a $3,000 - $5,000 monthly postive cash flow to supplement my other investments.

You can also retire early by cutting your standard of living...maybe the next house you buy can be your retirement home...1600 sq ft in a nice but cheap area on a 15 year note...and sell your primary to live off of and supplement with consulting.  

Does anyone do BPOs for supplemental income?

I'm an Adjunct Professor but I would like to supplement my income with RE investing.

One downside is it's not so great with taxes (reconciliation + depreciation) and I supplement with an accountant who uses quickbooks. 

I’ve been flipping cars for profit for over 10 years, and it’s been a great source of supplemental income.
