Avoiding lender fees will save you upwards of $18,000 on average just in acquiring the deal.

Subtract closing cost and there is no profit to pay capital gains on which means the 30k is tax savings from previous years that you now have to pay back.

I don't want to spend a lot to find this info, or the title info.

How much money do you have saved or how do you plan on financing and/or buying a first property?

Not when they are near work.There is lots of info about financials, environmental, all that stuff out there. 

Use resources such as TSP (Thrift Saving Plan) or military benefits so that you can save up money and invest it wisely.

Pros: You save on sales fees etc, and don't pay capital gains.

I have about 35k saved up due to still living at home.

Any info appreciated! 

We both are drawn to either single family long term rentals, or STR’s in the right locations.Right now we have $20k cash available for immediate investment, with the ability to increase that to $60-70k in the next 3 years through savings and bonuses at our day jobs.
