I think seasonality is starting earlier, but if people are starting this early, ahead of inventory bottoming, we could have a pretty crazy spring. 

You’ve already got a head start with hands on experience.. and you’re probably way more prepared than you think.That first property can feel both exhilarating and terrifying, so here’s what I’d focus on:Cash Flow & Analysis..

If foreclosure is what you want to invest in get a head of the game and focus on a target area and know if that HOA is a pain to work with, you might just find someone who wants to sell quickly to get aways from the HOA.

Go to some meetings ahead of applying, talk to the members of the board and ask questions if you have any.

You are already ahead of most of the others just starting out.

Hi Delroy,Congrats on your 2-flat purchase—exciting times ahead!

Starting out in real estate can be overwhelming, but with your background in flips, creative financing, and the Pace Morby community, you’re already ahead of the game.

This property, in particular, is in an area many local investors will not own, visit or even entertain as an investment.  

@Michael Whitman very good point and something to check on ahead of taking the loan.

If that covers the $400 I think you’r ahead.
