I started my real estate investing journey earlier this year by buying an out of state property in Detroit Michigan with the goal to fix and flip as a turnkey.

Closing real estate deals in any economy requires flexibility, adaptability, and a variety of strategic approaches.

Before I looked at the deal, here's what I asked from him:The purchase and sale agreementRehab breakdown documentation2 HUD statements of previous dealsDeal info (Property profile, funding, security, repayment plan, etc.)Title company involved in the transactionWhat I also asked for was a term sheet from the hard money lender that was lending at first position.

It sounds like you and your husband have a great start with your Airbnb venture in California, but it’s understandable to feel stuck with so many options in real estate investing.

Quote from @Bill Brandt: @Edward HeavrinThey wee all purchased with 20% down to avoid PMI.

My husband and I like many here, are so thankful for this community as we navigate our real estate journey.

Neil  cool and what do you expect the effect for real estate investors in this market?

Purchase price: $68,000 Cash invested: $14,000

I am looking to JV with my brother where I will do the real estate investing (finding deals, property management, etc.) and my brother will fund it from his business account. 

Recently my dad  has expressed the idea  of purchasing a home in DFW where he is currently renting.
