We hit .6 and game over - martial law.

@Rebecca McClellan - I have one in the Art Museum area and another in Northern Liberties.

Like everyone else has said, this is the best resource for building knowledge on Real Estate investing.I'm an investor in Northern VA, in Prince William county.

And I needed around $3,000 per month to live - so once I hit 30 units I quit.

Thanks for sharing your story and the things that motivated you to hit the road to financial independence.

I am currently looking at the possibly of purchasing another small multifamily property but I don't exactly know the Dallas market very well and I do not have many connections, so if you are in the Dallas area hit me up!

Meanwhile they never attempt to actually hit the pavement and try to make deals happen.

Did not hit the home runs but we had consistency of deal flow and I much less work than chasing foreclosures.

I will return to school in a few weeks (I'm from Wilmington, Delaware), and will want to hit the ground running.What would be the first few things I should focus on?

This is our first rehab, and we are kind of looking at it as our practice rehab before buying a property to fix up and flip.After buying our first two rentals in 2010, some problems with extended family hit in 2011, and it wound up being a drawn out and expensive ordeal.
