@Sean De Fry Orlando year over year has seen very strong job growth, population growth, and property appreciation.

.$200 or $400 per month cash-flow per unit is fine, but the real wealth is built buying odd or otherwise strong but unfinancable assets at discounts and repurposing or renovating smartly into something special.Will I now buy an A class single fam at a 20% discount that only breaks even or loses a couple hun a month with 10% down?

The company has expressed a strong desire to want to hire me before or when my second contract expires.Pay: I make a little over 1K a week (after taxes) with very low reoccurring debt due to me currently living at parents house.Goal for purchasing house: Buy 4-5 Bedroom house.

Doesn't mean good deals can't be found but have to be strong cash flow in case one overpays in short term.
