We used metal edging, "black star" gravel in the beds up front and seating area, planted sod (900SF by seating area), compacted pea-gravel on top of road base for the driveways, and did a planter at the corner of the property by the street.

If a wholesaler is established, they should have some spare cash lying around to fund a deal.

The trench must be compacted as it is filled, and of course the best tool for the job is the 'hoe pack'.

Rent out one side, and rent out the spare bedrooms on the one you occupy and you could be living for next to nothing if not free.Turnkey is not a bad thing, but realistically over the long term you are not going to see much if any cash flow once you factor in repairs/capex/vacancy/etc until the mortgage is paid off.

Let's say your next place is $200k, assuming your DTI can spare it you can get a 5% down conventional loan ($10k down).

Because of this my thought is:  If you can spare losing money every month for a while before the property appreciates to the point where you finally cash flow and build great equity, then maybe go for it.  

I'm in the process of getting a credit card so currently I have no credit and i'm working a low-wage job ($10/per hour) making around 800/month with about 500-600 to spare.

In my spare time I enjoy doing Crossfit at a local gym, reading, meeting new people, and traveling whenever time permits.  

Working full time in health care, singing in my spare time and renting out a property on the east coast was becoming a bit daunting while rehabbing the latest purchase.
