Without diving so deep into the weeds, the biggest factors I tell people who want to start out passively are:1.

Even then the inquiries were a slow trickle (I used Zillow).

If you catch these at the pre-foreclosure stage as slow pays or initially in default all the better as the bank has less in collection expense.You can still work out a discount but even buying at the payoff it can be profitable depending on the property value.You can practically force a lender to sell as it can fully indemnify them as a full payoff as demanded, continuing with a foreclosure becomes a rather vengeful act by the bank to punish a borrower, they don't want to go there.

I am probably going to join the course by Kai Andrews, it seems like it is in line with what I want tk do which is replace my work income w actuve real estate investing and then scale to 20 m's.Thats all for now, been a slow summer hope everyone is enjoying it🙂

It's slow going.

The market isn't going to take off and leave you behind tomorrow--you have time to take this slow and learn, observe, and review offerings without making an investment until you are ready.
