My plan is to buy in a year, so I have time to get my ducks in a line, I'm just figuring out where the best place to start it. 6.

@Charlie Stevenson That's an awesome tag line!

Since 3 bed/2baths are the most desirable among buyers, I have hired a contractor to turn the bonus space on the bottom level of my home to a 3rd bedroom (an option offered by the builder, but I didn't need it at the time).

I paid $1100 to a plumber to give me new plumbing lines in the kitchen and to create an attachment for the washer and dryer in the mud room adjacent to the kitchen.  

I have a property that was landlocked and sewage lines crossed families property to the city.

In addition, it is consuming over half of my line of credit which limits me from buying other projects. 

Speak with a bank to make sure you have funding lined up, as to not waste anyone's time.

Most states have them on line if not join your local real investing club and get the info there.

Drop me a line in the DM so we  can exchange contact info.

I will begin working in Charlotte NC after that and I will be "House Hacking" a 3 bed room house.
