@Daniel Kotowski No…you can not use current value…you use your actual basis.

@Kaleb Phillips you could pay for a mentor, but not many good ones worth what they charge.Everything you need to know is actually on the internet, much of it here on BP.Recommend working backwards: What results do you want?

We currently have a major shortage of inventory in this area, so it's not really a matter of "where the best place to buy", but more a matter of "can you find a house you like and actually purchase it?".   

The idea of offering a slightly higher price to entice the seller is reasonable, but make sure it still aligns with the property's actual market value.**2.

@Eric Kahn Gale both quotes sound pretty reasonable actually.

I hit my goal of 100, actually got to 109, I've set my new goal to 500 units within the next 7 years.
