This would be a perfect starter home for someone...but I don't want to exclude an FHA mortgage thanks to seasoning.

My goal at this point is to acquire a mulit-family rental for starters.

Like most people, my big goal is to develop enough mailbox money to cover my expenses -- but for starters, just getting a first place with positive cash flow seems so daunting...I'm a lawyer working in the oil business (Houston, duh) and I like photography and playing guitar and singing (poorly). 

hello there, just wondering if anyone would offer advice on some questions.  I am eager to try a real estate investment and actually found a possible rehab very close to my home...Mls listing 6394374I checked out the ...

One is never too young to start, and for starter, you're in the right place. :)While you start saving and wholesaling, network with members near your area and listen to their experience. 

Mike Jakobczak, $200K is a starter home.

We're new BP members looking for a 2-, 3-, or 4-unit starter property in Bronx.

For starters I am only approaching this on a typical investment from their end of 40,000-50,000 usd or so to cover downpayment, closing cost, and expenses until the sale of the property closes for the flip.

BP is amazing, I'm having a hard time getting anything else done around here, because there is so much excellent stuff to research, read, view, discuss....I am just beginning, so as far as what types of properties and a success team (oooh, I like that terminology), I'm open to learning as much as possible.For properties, I see myself starting out with Town houses as there are so many in Ottawa neighbourhoods and they keepbuilding them as starter homes.  

I want to invest and buy single family house in the future and I wanted to ask the community on how i should get started and be financially prepared as a starter?
