I suspect the stock market and or building then selling a bizzness created a big majority of millionare wealth and or just high paying jobs and save your money :)

My interest rate and purchase price wouldn’t allow for positive cash flow unless I charged an unreasonable rent—or put about $500K toward the principal, which isn't ideal.I’m a high earner, so I’m weighing my options:Take the loss ($60K-$100K), buy another house, and chalk this up to a hard lesson learned.Refinance, put more money into it, and rent it out long-term—even if it’s not immediately profitable.Invest my money elsewhere and try to make peace with staying here for several years or just move.Would love to hear thoughts from anyone with experience in real estate, financial strategy, or noise mitigation.

Even if it's a total rehab if the land bank has a property in an area where the arv's are substantially high wouldn't that be a good deal or a promising neighborhood for buy and hold.

Completely agree with you on this; I'm not making any claims to the quality of these lenders here.

BiggerPockets also has a calculator to analyze deals, and I highly recommend you start this as soon as possible, even if you are not ready to buy.

In North Jersey, buying is difficult from my beginner perspective with high prices, property tax, etc.Barrier to entry feels high in my area.

In a highly competitive tourist market like New Orleans, I update my photos weekly. 

The ones with really good reviews, and a high amount of reviews usually cost a little more, but do a good job.  

I just wasn't sure if it is my responsibility to do something if the electric bill is high and are not satisfied. do I have to be concerned about that?

Investing in real estate can be highly rewarding—but it also comes with risks.
