We are Headquartered in Tampa but the majority of our properties are in Saint Pete.

I fell in love with the negotiating an chasing deals not to long ago an discovered that's my niche and now I'm here to keep growing an connect with all sorts of amazing people. any advice would be much appreciated, I've been saving and saving an believe I have enough capital to get into one of the strategies, its 35k and house flipping seems right up my alley though the market an fear of not having enough capital is holding me back. any advice thank you!

RE is a LONG game.

.- Underwrite the property to breakeven or small positive cash flow as a standalone long-term rental to a single tenant.

My goal for the next 10 years is to build a sustainable and profitable mortgage business and use the profits to invest in long-term rentals.

Despite owning our primary residence (paid in full) and being invested for so long, I am realizing I know very little about hands on real estate.

So if a note investor bought this for $40k, spent $10k to foreclose and be in it for $50k and end up with a $25k property - they will not be in business long. 

First of all, you picked a great PM with WHM - Ed has been running a very good business for a long time! 

So, while prices held relatively firm overall, we are seeing a decrease in buyer demand and a buildup of inventory compared to this time last year.

It serves many benefits for both buyers and sellers and if a law had been passed long ago that all such private transactions were required to be serviced through a thrid party, we would not have as much regulation addressing the issues we have today, specifically, the individual investors under the SAFE Act!
