But, in the end, a HELOC is great to just have in case that beautiful day comes where I get a great opportunity.

It is a very well established market with solid, steady revenue, and it is beautiful to visit.

We focus on CapEX before beauty. as a realtor we understand selling or renting homes you have to make the home function, Roofing, windows, electrical and plumbing. after we address these we focused on beautify making sure the upgrades match the area and is forward thinking with color scheme, flooring, and flow.

Depending on how you are acquiring these properties you may be able to just do one per year but that only matters if speed is an issues.

Real estate is beautiful though because there are so many things to try and see what actually makes you happy .

Sounds beautiful.

I have a rare opportunity to purchase a beautiful old historic inn that I've had my eye on for about 15 years that just came on the market.

My wife and I own a beautiful historic home in a small, charming town in Northern Virginia.

Thank you @Dave Foster I look forward to my new venture and investing in real estate hoping to achieve financial freedom and enjoy my life with my kids and my beautiful wife that has a terrible debilitating autoimmune disease.

I imagine a lot of areas maybe not the majority but a lot are in this same bucket.But like @Pace Jordan Morby mentioned the beauty of real estate is that there are multiple layers dealing in the buddle of rights and ownership so investors will find a way. do keep in mind there are firms that their entire business is to track mortgages like an actuary and rate them to give the servicers and the banks a read on how many loans could be in trouble when they could be in trouble and how much reserves they need.
