Quote from @MIchael McCUe: Money isn't easy to save and $10,000( my debts) is a ton of money I want to save for a downpayment, I'm just starting so I don't have any money I would like to save $60,000 to buy a rental property, I think I could do it in  5-6 years, my brother filed bankruptcy and they relieved him of $6000 in debt from cash money.a list of my debtGst Hst Tax 4500 income tax from working with my dad I oweScotiabank credit card 1400Canadian Tire credit card 500cash money loan 2400Belair 600echelon 600should I pay the 10k back in the next while or should I file bankruptcy like my brother as It won't be for years until I am able to get a downpayment for a rental house anyway.Here are the negative consequences, in regard to real estate, of filing bankruptcy1.

Some will be ok in 2nd position and some will not and force you to refinance out the first - but those are options that are probably cheaper than credit cards 

Don't focus on a "rule of thumb" as a rookie.

I see landlords lose thousands, even tens of thousands, making rookie mistakes that they could have avoided with a little education up front.Once the first property is under contract, start again for the second.

Quote from @Preston Dean: Quote from @Michael Ewers: Quote from @Preston Dean: Hi @Michael EwersI have had a few past clients from Cali call me saying "I sent post cards to home sellers and I have someone who wants to sell, can you help me with pictures and videos" I think their method was just mass mail and they got a few hits.

If you do decide to do mailer(s), then I would advise you to personalize the card and do a handwritten note. 

These also all have corresponding Youtube Videos on the Real Estate Rookie Youtube.

Also putting a business card and flyer on the door could work.
