A 100k house that is worth 140k wouldn't sell for 100k unless there were repairs so I don't really see a deal here as most 100k markets aren't hockey stick appreciation markets.

I hired a contractor who left his workers unsupervised, they painted the whole house but did a terrible job because the paint didn’t stick.

You'll eventually build enough income from rentals that you can quit the W-2, or you can stick with it and keep growing.Passive income?

Stick with 30 year mortgages and pay them on a 15 year amortization schedule if you are trying to payoff your debt quickly.

Due to the 5 figure cost to cancel we'll have to stick it out until contracts expire. 

Stick to that and you'll be just fine.

Yes it can be worth it, just don't expect to get rich quick lolMidterm rental has been my strategy and I'll definitely be sticking to it for the next few years.

Would you stick with the bank  (have kept the communication going with my contact on what i'm working on, high level is 25% in, 9% rate amoritzed 15 currently but I think they would do 20 and also includes construction phase but not sure yet on when it would switch to p&i) and go that route or would bringing in a cash partner (friend/family, have multiple people interested) be something to consider?

HI Ryan,Personally I recommend just sticking with hard money,It gives you flexibility on the acquisition price, liquidity and a line of credit to fund your rehab.

Do you think sticking with white is a safe choice, or is there another color that would add some more curb appeal while remaining neutral?
