I modify the analysis to include my fee and "pan for gold" through the MLS as well as other leads I get.

Whether that actually pans out will be seen 3 years from now

I work East Coast hours from 5:30am - 2:30pm Pacific, which leaves the afternoon and some evenings for me to pursue my real estate endeavors.I will be purchasing my first investment property in 2018, with a stretch goal of purchasing 3 properties this year.

FSBO rarely pan out. 

Underneath the tub to where the waste pops through the floor you might be able to sleeve it and roll pan or schluter up to the sleeve.

@William Patsalis For the Zoom on 10/26, Would this be 5pm pacific?

At the end of the day, even if none of these ideas pan out, I'd still have an epic 3rd floor for family and friends when they visit.

Some did not always pan out and some did. 

I really wanted to buy a 4-plex as my first deal 20% down, but that didnt pan out as it fell out of contract due to huge plumbing issues.

Quicken/Rocket, United Wholesale, Homepoint, and so on, all being major wholesale mortgage players, all headquartered in/around metro Detroit (good place for cost effective hard-working workers, call it the Motor City work ethos of their parents still being around if you want, but good luck having good rates, low costs, and smooth operations, if your 8k or 20k workers are in San Francisco making San Francisco salaries, it's not like this is bread or chocolate where the wonderful Pacific ocean air is going to infuse into the mortgages and make them "taste" any better...).
