Anything up to that price will be hard to earn a reasonable profit and you would need to put more than 20% down to make it work.I'm very familiar with this area as I own several homes here. 

I have over 100 agents throughout the state and out of my team leaders (35 in total) ALL of them earn above $100k and a lot of them above $250k.

When I started out (in 2007), I had the goal of owning 100 apartments generating $100 per month which would put me at $120K positive cash flow (double what I was earning at the time).  4 years and 31 apartments later, I realized my plan would take too long to achieve and i had to get out of my JOB.

If they didnt earn a big commision from you being there buyer there is a good chance they will careless.  

I earned a MBA from Wharton in Real Estate in 2015 and earned a Professional Engineering license in Civil Engineering / Construction in 2013.

My understanding is that after buying few properties one's earning to debt ration reaches such that long term conventional financing from bank does not remain the option.

You can also cut your teeth partnering w/experts and earn/learn while you get more familiar w/the markets.  

Also because our tax return is so time consuming he does give us a discount off of his total bill which even with the discount is expensive.In summary I recommend Miles but realize I am claiming up front that he is expensive - I suspect few tax men earn a higher hourly rate.Good luck

Nitin, you can only contribute to the Solo 401k from the earnings of your side business.
