@Aaron Mazzrillo Mentioned about following billionaires, well let’s just face the music clearly great minds think alike, and these guys don’t think about today or tomorrow they think about future generations, that’s why they are so successful.

In Sacramento where I've been focusing most of my search home prices are about half of what the are in my current area but still I struggle to find anything that looks it will generate cash.   

It's more expensive primarily because this deal has a different risk profile than a conventional one and non-conventional lenders have a higher cost of capital (which they pass along to you in the form of higher rates).Generally I think the way to think about it is the profit you stand to generate from this deal far outweighs your cost of short-term capital. 

This means no, you do not get a title report or insurance from the court.I've been in a number of cases where it was necessary to complete a double, serial probate due to several successive generations of deceased owners.

I am new investor on the block with a desire to generate passive income to support family using RE investing to pursue other goals outside of RE.

I'm interested to know what are some of the best strategies or best types or properties to look for when I start searching for buyers and generating leads.

My advice:  Generate a ton of leads and go after the sure things with ferocity.  

My name is Drew and I live in Jefferson County, West Virginia.My goal for the past 5 years has been to generate passive income using a buy and hold strategy.

Conservatively, I am hoping each building will generate at least $1,000 a month.
