Not sure what people you are talking about, but starting with 100k and BRRRing into retirement in a few years is unlikely unless you can live on a really small monthly income or worked like hell to combine that 100k with other resources (sweat equity, partnerships, etc) to grow rapidly.

I see every day that rents are rising at a rapid pace - the population is already stretched to the max as far as finding affordable housing.I should really contact decision makers in the city.... this should be a give and take. 

This constant focus of newbies on rapid scaling and unreasonably cheap furnishings fixtures and equipment are no guarantee of success.

It’s wellMaintained so I can really force appreciation, the rents can be increased incrementally.

For every increment in deductible the insurance quotes go down about $100/yr -- so, for example, going from 500 to 1000 deductible after 5 years of  zero claims, I'd be money ahead.

I own a small (1000 sq ft 2/1) SF home in a rapidly improving and desirable part of town, but it is in need of total renovation.

The lease can be long term with incremental lease income increases every few years.

Are there any wholesalers in the Eastern Iowa area, mainly Cedar Rapids, Marion, or Hiawatha area that need help or are willing to speak to a beginner?

Hi All,Was recently having trouble with a tenant and noticed that rent has consistently been paid late and in increments.
