You could certainly start out wholesaling using double-closes and assignments, as you have enough funding to sustain a reasonable marketing budget for the 6 mths or so it'll likely take to get your deal flow going (allocating $1k/mth, for example).

Our roof had sustained 14 severely split rafters out of 22 on the rear end of the house.

@Paul StoutI think you are actually resonating with a lot of the reasons they decided to live there in the first place.

Most lenders that do non recourse loan, usually focus on income producing properties because it generates revenue that can sustain the debt that was borrowed.

Here's how to turn them into WHY: I want the freedom I can achieve in Real Estate so that I can:1) have more time in the day to nurture myself physically as I try regain optimal health2) have more time to devote to my children as they are growing up3) have the money I need and want to sustain a lifestyle I can enjoy4) Learn as I progress in this field and meet the people who can teach me more than I ever thought possibleOK, I'm all ready to go now!

Because I bought the property as an FHA home loan with 3.5% down in order to refinance it to generate sustainable cash flows I am having to put down about 7% down (the home currently has about 10% equity prior to the refinance) so this additional investment should generate about 20% return.

If you keep reinvesting the seed investment money, the ROI can be more than 100%/month, or even week, though it is not sustainable for all 52 weeks due to the fact that campaigns have a natural life cycle.

Bottom line is sustainability, and running most your businesses almost on autopilot with as little overhead as you can.

Basically replace myself with a self sustaining system of its own.

It just doesn't seem sustainable.
