Examples could include:Partnering with other investors to share risk.Using seller financing or lease options.Leveraging creative rehab techniques to save on costs.Negotiating with contractors in a unique way to reduce expenses.I’d love to hear any stories, tips, or approaches that helped you pull off a deal others might have instantly passed on.

Along with the research I am doing, I'd love to hear from others about their firsthand experience.I am 33 years old, recently married, no kids but plan to have our first in the next year.
