I will of course use YouTube and other online sources, but I'd also like to speak with a person and even build a relationship with my local hardware store!

It's only 3.5% down + closing costs and reserves.Work your day job, mow lawns, leaf cleanup, shovel snow, flip furniture, pick up night shifts waiting tables/bartending, stock shelves at home depot overnight if you hate talking to people or anything else.

The purchase price is $275,000 and contains 1 commercial space on the first floor (convenience store) and five apartment units on the second floor.

Make sure the home has quality furniture and items that don’t fall apart in a few years.
