After 4 years of paying landlords rent, I would like to start in investment real estate.

The down payment is based off the total adjusted acquisition cost – the purchase price plus the cost of renovations.

The cost isn't much different and a buyer can go in and start renting out rooms immediately. 

I am eager to get started on locking in my first investment property and have questions on what my best approach would be.I own my home and have been making slow improvements to it over the last year I have had it.

And there's tons more, but these are a good start imo

This is how I got started, and I've flipped over 75 homes in the past few years.That said, make sure you have reserves and are smart with your finances.

As we are just starting our initial research on which markets we would like to focus on, we came across, Shelby, NC.  

Hello all,I just passed my residential leasing agent exam and am looking to work as an agent in Chicago, IL.What companies are recommended for a starting out agent?

If you can't get the residents out that are not paying, then nothing will help.I would hire an attorney that deals strictly with evictions and start issuing eviction notices to anyone who has broken the laws of their lease.

I'm having a hard time justifying this cost when I'm only getting started.
