Some % of all of those are also looking for honest reviews.In the end though it really all comes down to the contacts, you're making in person, shaking hands, kissing babies, asking for business, keeping in better touch with your sphere.

The basic dynamics of real estate across the country are pretty set for the next few years -- too many buyers from the Millennial generation (bigger generation than baby boomers) who are hitting peak buying age, not enough new construction, older homeowners not selling as soon.

You can make minor adjustments based on the type of appliances (dishwasher, clothes washer and dryer, air conditioning, etc.) and the size of the rental.

I'm nowhere close to your level of building such a large container home, but I'm taking my baby steps!

I just spent an entire day working with individual contractors and picking up supplies, and this is getting harder to do with increasing job responsibilities and planning for a baby next year.

She was recently laid off from her job but cannot go back to work because they have a 7 month old baby who needs more medical attention than most babies due to a birth defect.

Andrew - thanks for the advice on putting together a buyers list - I just started this "whole thing" six weeks ago and have been so busy marketing and trying to get deals that I didn't network at the meetings like I should have - I was just chunking it down into baby steps to keep from getting overwhelmed lol

Whether you go for it all at once or take baby steps, I think real estate investing is the perfect "part-time job" to create wealth.  

There are plenty of baby-boomers unloading properties they no longer want as they head for Florida.  

I also have a new baby, so having someone rent a room also wouldn't be something my family would be comfortable with.
