Two conventional loans, Fannie Mae HomeStyle or Freddie Mac Choice Renovation will allow an Investor to buy with as little as 15% down on a Single family.

Then you will have more choices since you won’t be stuck with what the builder offers, and can even do just the kitchen if you want.

Good question because I prefer carpet in my personal bedroom but non carpet floors seem like a better choice for rental. 

I’m debating on if it’s worth it to go through a agent to find my first deal or not, or should I just join one of them online memberships that show off market deals that’s below market value with Equity that you have to pay a monthly fee, If anyone dealt with a agent and the online membership what was the best choice and which way showed you the most deals ?

Zelle is a top choice, followed by Paypal - by my clients.

I have a choice between two cape cod homes that are otherwise about the same. 

My transition away from 9-5 has been a long time coming; 12 years if I count from the first house I bought as an investment, 6 years if I count from my choice to change to a job that would help me leave the rat race.

The main picture is a bad choice in my opinion.

I think an LLC is a great choice just because things can get messy when you work with an additional investor.
