I am a newbie in this realm and looking forward to learning all I can in this endeavor of becoming financially independent.

We are currently building many investment Single Family Homes on independent lots that focus on maximizing rent.

I'm sure there are many more experiences where the contractor hasn't fulfilled their scope of work and gotten away with rushing the project to meet the deadline, And, I don't want to be as naive to say that I'm that 1% who can have complete quality/operational control, but I'm confident I can establish a system and hire independent inspectors to review the contractor's work. 

Never buy without personally inspecting and approving the property and INDEPENDENTLY, INDEPENDENTLY, INDEPENDENTLY, verifying everything from values to market rates, to approving tenant selection procedures and standards, to repairmen on standby, to everything else in Christendom that you can thing of.I am not a fan of out-of-state investing, especially for those with less than 50 years of experience, and for them, they’re probably too old for the hassle. 

You can learn to do this independently or get a rockstar REALTOR to lead the way.

I started my career as a commercial banker a long time ago, but have been an independent mortgage broker for nearly a decade.

An independent sewer line alone can be as much as $10K.

.: I would go HELOC for sure that would be best as others were saying the lower cost for the money changes between paying a higher rate for a personal line and typically personal lines they want a higher monthly charge as well independent from the interest rate.  

These are NOT employees according to the website, they’re independent contractors who receive 1099 at the end of the year.  

My end game is to show you a path to financial independence, whether that be at 45 yrs old or 70 yr old.
