Hey guys.I have a motivated buyer that wants to sell me her mtg. home for cheap.

Most of my buys come off the MLS, but I am looking to add in some marketing to get the phone ringing from motivated sellers in pre-foreclosure, short sales, or whatever.

Great job Deborah, thanks for keeping us posted on your progress.This is truly motivational and I will be following your updates on this building :) Apartment investing is what I hope to be doing in the future and there you are!

Spend your money on quality leads and figure out how to sort out the motivated sellers from the non motivated.

The way I stay in the game is to constantly surround myself with other investors and constantly listen to real estate and motivational podcast as well as stay on Biggerpockets and read books.

Monthly outgo: $840 PITI + $110 Property Management + $50 water billMonthly income: $1000Mortgage remaining: $99,900Tax assessed value: $115,000I am feeling terrible about having to rent it out due to the break-even cash flow + the uncertainty of big expenditures.

The reality is contractors are motivated by money and retail jobs give them a fat paycheck for profit.

.- Approx $270k is owed on the mortgage with 21 years remaining.- The property may be valued at around $190-210k conservatively.

So whether the one coming is actually from Humana or not remains to be seen.
