You don't need to save up $100K or quit your job today in order to become a successful investor. I started 23 years ago and bought my first property with 3.5% down using an FHA loan. I had to borrow the down payment f...

@Yael DoronHi - I don't invest in Phoenix but was just curious if you already own real estate and are looking to expand into Phoenix, or are brand new.

(Previous rent was $1,300 but we're about to put in a brand new kitchen from the studs, new flooring throughout the house, new furance, adding A/C, etc).So do we just pay for it all upfront and mostly drain all of our savings, or do I let the rent pay for it and utilize our other savings to get a second property this spring/summer to increase our cashflow? 

Flipping a brand new home likely wouldn’t bring much profit - especially after having to close twice when you first buy it, and later sell it.Maybe you have millions to spend and I’m just missing the big picture… but when I think of “income” I’m usually thinking “net income” after you factor in expenses, like purchase price or building costs?  

Purchase price: $630,000 Cash invested: $120,000 Completely gutted this property, brand new electrical, furnace, propane, finished basement to create separate unit.New garage with rental unit.

I am not preticuarly brand new to real estate as I've done 1 house flip before and 1 brrrr here locally to me.To begin, I’m aiming to tackle two single-family BRRRR projects in the Jackson County, MO area.

In Phoenix, a 1996 build is practically brand new when compared to a WWI-era home in Cleveland or Pittsburgh or some other Midwest or East coast city.While I agree that older homes come with more problems, buying something newer may not work as the price will be higher and won't cash flow as well.I'm of the mindset to buy what fits your budget and investment goals.

on a brand new house with brand new everything that rents for $2000 a month - it might be fine.
