You will also discover the warranties don't cover as much as you think, and claims are often denied.Home warranties are so bad that most professional property managers will not manage a property with one in place.

Around this time I discovered Bigger Pockets and a bunch of real estate platforms online.

Usually will work in GA, NC, OH, TX or FL areas.I am always willing to take advice from experienced investors on topics I may be unsure of and I am also able to provide my own perspective on topics I've studied, have been through or just my opinion in general. 

Unlike some buyers, I ALWAYS go look at the properties before the sale and discovered that the vacant lot had an active railroad track on it and therefore was unbuildable, and would remain unbuildable until the railroad removed their track. 

Spending the owner's money, not saying anything, and letting them discover it while reviewing the monthly statement is unprofessional.

Unless you use a local professional familiar with the market, who you trust, best way to know a good deal is to study the market.

I hired my own expert and discovered these issues did not exist but that the expert the 3 buyers had brought in wanted to be hired to do the work so they blew them out of proportion.

I have studied things and I feel I would only make maybe an extra grand a year and frankly I don't want to squeeze every last time out of people coming for vacation.Most of our guests are regular people.

Study the market.
