Went on to purchase additional rentals so tenants can pay down the loan and I build equity How did you find this deal and how did you negotiate it?

Let the numbers tell you where is the best area, for you.Oh, and if you invest out of state, build the PM costs in the deal.

I’m able to pay cash for some houses occasionally when my savings builds up.

Hi Calvin, if is it listed with anyone, it may have a similar address and a realtor posted your address by mistake,This happened to me a few months ago whereby I own a condo in a community that has 3 building and I own A6, but they were trying to list C6 and only added 6 to the MLS listing lol.

The number one mistake that I saw buyers making was jumping right into negotiating (and not very good negotiating at that) without first spending the time to build rapport.

Investors should:✔ Monitor Blackstone’s acquisitions – Are they buying more apartment buildings, warehouses, or single-family rentals?

You’re thinking the right way—keep building, and you’ll be in a great position for that apartment building loan in 10 years.

I’m looking to build connections with realtors here in the DFW area, as I’m eager to explore opportunities and share knowledge with professionals in the real estate industry.If you're a realtor or involved in any real estate activities in the DFW region, I’d love to connect and collaborate.

Even after one year, that property may provide thousands of dollars worth of appreciation, you will pay down your loan and build some equity, and you can depreciate the asset. 

Living in the properties while fixing them up is a great way to build equity and keep costs low.
