I have had good experience with probate properties, grandma house which family doesn’t want to deal with and bringing it to contemporary style.

First, the book is excellent for anyone looking to learn more about investing in real estate.

Please correct me if anything I say about my plan is wrong and I'm willing to learn/listen to more advices here.I'm currently living in PA will be paying off my house this year (only $20,000 left).

Would love to learn the ropes of the real estate investment world, and find some friends along the way.

Learn a little bit at a time.  

I'm finding some listings on a popular realtor mls listing site (not sure if I'm allowed to say which one here)  that have a box on the listing which states "Assumable Mortgage" and has a "learn how" button, when I click on the button it says: "This home has an assumable mortgage"  and it lists the current average interest interest rate for April 2024 (7.00) for a new loan vs.  

I'm curious to learn if these seem in the reasonable range including the fee amounts. 

Actually there is and it's very popular and can be found here https://www.biggerpockets.com/forums/67-rehabbing-...Your question depends on the style of the house and the price point.

on the bleachers right now just learning so i got a question If I find a  duplex for 350k, put 20% down , 30 year mortgage after the 30 years is over and the property is paid off,  it cost me more than 700k that just doesn't sit right in my stomach.

Are there specific features/styles of homes that perform really well in the area beyond the traditional log cabins?
