Focus on the task at hand (school) & do whatever you can to graduate debt free...it's a great feeling and will be very empowering.

Or it may be worth doing if you feel like you want more hands on experience or live close by.Some people budget for about $500 a pad just to be safe.  

For a run of 1000, even with all supplies on hand,, a minimum of 8 hours...that's a full day's work!

Hello all,We have just funded my wife’s SDIRA and have been reading everything we can get our hands on.

On the other hand keeping the property will allow you the potential to benefit from appreciation in the future on the property.Normally I would strongly advise unloading any negative cash flow property however if your purpose is only to hoard the cash in another property there is no net gain in selling.

Sometimes they are hard to read as they are hand written. 

I usually search for properties on my own and contact the owner via door knocking or sending them a hand written letter.

@Grant Rothenburger and @Paul CaputoI failed to mention that we really need to get the concrete work done and don't have that cash on hand, so will need to finance that much at least.  

I read a few different articles and any first hand knowledge is very helpful and appreciated.

On the other hand I understand I'm unproven to each person I sit in front of and I find myself asking what the relationship is worth.I'm curious if some of the more experienced buy and hold investors had the same problem when first establishing their commercial relationships.Do I just need to suck it up and establish the relationship at the lesser valuation?
