@Jaron WallingLicense You will work harder than you’ve ever worked in your life if you want to be a full-time successful agent,You will have less free time than you have ever had if your actually going to work as an agent and make money, Cold calls, door knocks, family and friends most likely won’t trust you at first with no experience Following up with leads, managing your database, sending comps, houses, driving more than you have ever driven in your life 😉Investing:If you don’t own or have a place get a house hack started, then you can see how a rental kind of works, fixing toilets etc, switching lights out changing flooring, duplex is always ideal.Then after that is running or if you have the capital now run market rents on a apartment complex or whatever you can afford, see the down payment plus taxes- all of expenses if the property is cash flowing from market rents sure thing, just as easy as it sounds 😂😂😂Don’t forget vacancy’sAnd rinse and repeat tell you have enough residual income that your comfortable with and you will never have to work for the man again!

Finding a great tenant will always affect your experience as a landlord. 

Buying the home right and fixing it up adds plenty of value to resell.As buy and hold, appreciation doesn’t affect my business model.

Unless I'm missing something this thing screams sell - get the money off the table and repeat with tax free dollars.

I would most definitely use the 3.5% down, buy a quad and then rinse and repeat.

Single Family Residence ONLY.I can make another post later on the details of rehab loans.Judging from the info posted one would assume you can simply buy a multifamily (1-4 units) using an FHA loan then rinse and repeat once a year or two.

This is a topic that will affect every city pretty much. 

Then move out and repeat the process.

Do you understand CAP rates and how they affect the value of a property?

. * Don't allow financing or a finance contingency (it can be a good indication they are selling above market value)* Don't allow for your own independent property inspection* Are not realistic with their pro forma's (i.e. they don't include vacancy or maintenance projections or use unrealistically low vacancy factors)* Require you to pay for any renovation upfront* Sell only in cheap. low end neighborhoods* Don't accurately represent the neighborhood/property classification* Don't have consistent rehab standards for all properties* Don't provide a scope of work for the property* Can't provide references of repeat investors* Require you to close before a tenant is in place
