But we want to get into house flipping and have started looking at the listings here to find investors and properties.My question here is if we are in escrow and we find a property and an investor and get in escrow there, how would that affect the purchase of our new home?

Meaning, is there a way, maybe even after my 2nd purchase, to only use my properties to continue to scale?  

Real estates makes money when you purchase the property.

Purchase price: $310,000 Cash invested: $50,000 Big Blue - 2 units fully rented, 1 with section 8 tenant and 1 unit being used for short term rentals What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

I also am a member of the International Real Estate Federation, and can connect you with agents who are able to help with your purchase.  

Purchase price: $150,000 Cash invested: $60,000 Rented it for $2195.

There is an amount that you can distribute from an IRA account to purchase a personal residence.You then might be able to turn the personal residence into an investment property.Best of luck.

Quote from @Steven Catudal: Hi all,I am looking to partner with a friend of mine to purchase some rental properties.

I purchased my first home through NACA to actually live in and I'm curious on how to build my RE portfolio from here.

I recently purchased my first duplex in Peoria, AZ in September and I am using it as a house hack where I rent out one side and live in the other.
