With that kind of response to a simple introduction post, I'm looking forward to the benefits of BP.Thanks again.

We have had a duplex with a tenant who receives public assistance and Section 8 benefits on one side and a working attorney in the other side.

You might even call me a fanboy when it comes to the benefits of big data as an investor.

Create a calculator for yourself looking at what each house can cost/benefit you?

This approach isn't making me rich each month, but in 20 years, if I decide to keep, it'll be paid off and throwing off whatever the rents may be at that time.Sure, making 100k in a flip is great (and looking forward to that deal) but a few more like these and life becomes easy.I saw the benefit of having 50% ownership with finding the deal and dealing with the rehab and the partner made their 50% by letting me use their money for a year.

But what they don't tell you is you have to jump through a ridiculous amount of hoops to get access to these benefits.

Also, the contract we signed with all of their requests is full of vagueness, which had been clarified in conversation, but now they are coming back saying different things, interpreting the contract in a way that it benefits them more... ignoring the conversations that we had had.Then there's the electrical contractor who was supposed to "clean up" the handyman wiring in the 1901 house who covered up open spliced wiring with insulation, which I then had to pay another contractor to come and clean up costing me another 800.00.Now, the good news is, as long as the home appraises, I should clear about 26k on the property.
