I’m 30 years old, 10 month old son, juggling taking care of the family, property of 21 acres, an old farm house, work, and real estate.

Just be sure to research your target markets carefully to maximize returns.

Just focus on running the numbers carefully to ensure the property cash flows or at least covers expenses, and don’t hesitate to lean on resources here for advice.If you’re financing, look into FHA loans, as they’re great for first-time buyers purchasing up to 4-unit properties with low down payments.

You can list all the reasons why you charge $250 for a one-time shoveling, but nobody will care when there are other vendors doing the exact same job for $100 or less.I'm in a city of 10,000.

I still think if you're an investor, you need to run your numbers carefully. 

Also I understand the funds aren't available for the improvements so that is another obstacle that has me leaning towards price reductions to move on as soon as possible.The exit of lower tier SFH's is something very few investors care to consider when making their investments but deserves far more consideration. 

Be very careful who you take advice from online, you should get involved with a local attorney and a local realtor.

As long as no “healthcare” services are provided (like medication or personal care), it’s not regulated by the Department of Health.

At the end of the day, 99% of sellers and brokers only care about your surety to close (I leave out 1% that might care about HOW you operate your deals, regardless of price paid).The fact that you have never closed a large transaction AND are not providing all your proof of funds up front and/or talking with brokers about where the money is coming from, will give them some trepidation.  

It is a perfectly good fridge, tenants don't care.
