But like I said, this is a work in progress and I still need to do more work on these numbers.  

It may be a good idea to just try and build up a savings account as well as get a steady job and in your spare time go to real estate investing meetings or 'clubs' in your local area in order to learn from experienced investors in your area!

This is really tough for locals to afford.We've never banked on, or could have anticipated, such steady double digit appreciation for such a extended run, but I do think it's time to move over Hoosier pass to Park county.

My portfolio loan was in progress but they have backed out as they cannot fund.

Find a quiet place that's not in bed yet some place cozy that you can really focus.Kudos,Mary Thanks for the tips, Marry - I can definitely see how that would limit burn-out day-to-day; but with my personality, I'd go insane with a slow 'n steady approach - just going to crank through it as quickly as I'm able.

Seeing them progress is very rewarding!

Looking forward to your progress on this journey.

I will keep everyone updated on my progress.  

That said, I've seen that there are definitely deals to be had here, and I'm glad to hear you have a team on the ground who knows the area.I'll be interested to see how your efforts progress, so keep us posted!
