Learning from those who had already paved the way, I earned my real estate and mortgage broker licenses, equipping myself with the tools to dive into the market.But knowledge alone wasn’t enough—I needed mentorship.

I just found out that I do not qualify for a conventional loan due not having 1099/self-employment earnings for at least a year.

Quote from @Bradley Buxton: @Ryan KinoshitaI've used bluevine and there are some downsides to a online only bank.

Does anyone have any advice on a better strategy to earn interest with the cash flow being produced?

If you wanted to earn $200k to live on at a W2 job....you'd need to earn significantly more because you'd have to pay income taxes, and payroll taxes on the income; where as taking on debt isn't taxable at all. 

When it was all said and done I still ended up being able to pull about 5 to 10k more out of it than I put into it.Current mortgage including taxes and insurance is $1,519 and it's currently rented for $2,546/month.Yes, you can buy a house at auction that you then flip and sell for market value.And yes, I have participated in online auctions.

Hey Peter, After working with several PMs I decided to manage myself using the online tools.

"variable income" will require a 2 year average of income/ earnings to qualify. 

You can also check their reviews online at Google, Facebook, or Yelp.

I was out of college (just earned my degree in Culinary Arts) and was constantly running out of money.
