The past few years have really magnified that so I’ve decided I would like to only work on my own terms and ideally on my own investments.I’m located in Orlando which from what I’ve read here seems to be a cesspool although it also appears to have a lot of activity and presumably a lot of competition.It seems like unless you have access to an asset manager then you just need to move quickly on REO properties with few or no contingencies to get deals that pencil out to profitable rehabs?

You can take your time on making an offer, but ideally you will get good enough to know as soon as you see a place to know what to offer.

It's not ideal because it's still putting all the eggs in one basket, but if you think about it's what many people have to do.

Values seem to increase as you move east, from $30k-$40k on the west side up to $120k+ on the east.I live towards the east end and ideally I'd find properties in that area, but the realities of my current financing mean I'll probably have to start in the lower end.

Yearly combined rent is 25800 (2150/month)I will be paying water- about 2400 per year (200/month)insurance and property taxes come to about 6617 (552/month)monthly mortgage is 1240I know the cashflow is not nearly at the ideal amount, only coming in at $158 but is appreciation and the terms alone worth it?

In broad strokes they have these models:1.

If she is "less than ideal" in her living habits, I would simply offer her the chance to get out of the lease in 30 days (maybe a touch longer but don't get taken advantage of!).

Quicker closes, No qualifying, etc. and when you have those deals that work out badly or you take a loss (it will happen), the JV can look pretty good.JV will never look like the best deal in the pro forma numbers but how often do you hit the ideal numbers?

Why wouldn't I deal with other people for fairly good money for a while until I get better relatively passive income going?

I guess what i forgot to mention was I have had cleaners come in before and I was there when they cleaned and they did a fantastic job but I lost there contact info, I guess making a detailed list is a great ideal but I'm not sure they would pay that much attention to it and if they did they might not be able to comprehend it, what my experience with it is you pretty much have to supervise them.
