How can I lose???

I will pay the money if I can do 1 or 2 deals in the next 4 months.

How can I help you?"

Or just sell it at a loss… I need some guidance here, I know very little about real estate investing other than I know I’ll be losing money after maintenance and paying a property manager.

The best thing you can do is plan that the first year will be on the lean side.

Still lots of work to do on the house and the “book” I still have to figure out what to do for it (paper/digital/both), and a few more things I probably am not yet aware of … reading on this forum and asking questions sure has helped out a lot.

Increase your earnings, reduce expenses, save up, and invest.

It's just the cost of doing business.  

Now as I stated I'm not a agent but I do feel confident in this here friend. 

Trying to do everything yourselves.
