Do I rip the bandaid off and get Ethan Allen or Bassett?

The one aspect I'd say where planning can really provide benefit however is with tax planning.  

I’m working with local investors who are snapping up everything they can get their hands on, and honestly, I can’t blame them.

Purchase price: $330,000 Cash invested: $40,000 Hey everyone, I wanted to share a personal story about a property I purchased and renovated in Hudson County, NJ.

@Adam Newman yeah, not understanding your statements, "I have $50k plus about 7k in the bank" and "take out a loan and go in with 20% from the start?".

BiggerPockets is full of resources designed to help you along your journey, whether you are just getting started or a seasoned investor.

The other thing I can think of that  they can do is use those in the dryer dry cleaning kits but not sure if you have the kind of tenants that might do that either with work clothes or drapes.

Do you need to empathize with the seller and their situation?

I'm more serious about it now so I don't think I retained a lot when I took them.

Quote from @Eli Jerman: So I am wondering if I can still use Turbo Tax to do my taxes this year.
