Enjoy the journey.

I understand that BRRRR, value add, and other rehab strategies are great for some people, but if you're someone that places a very high value on your time, and enjoy your day job, then they may not be the best strategies for you. 

@Tyler EttnerHi Tyler,Congrats on the savings and the licensing endeavor!

I've always enjoyed learning.

While they have the right to quiet enjoyment, you also have the right to go into your own property periodically to check the condition.....and check for extra tenants, extra pets, extra criminal activity, damage, repairs, and such so that your property stays in great condition.

Hi Cliff,Enjoy your brief trip to Jax!

@Michael O'Neal Congrats on the new job and I hope you enjoy Greenville a lot.

My natural inclination has been to get into the remolding side of things because I am someone that enjoys working with my hands and my most of my current experience is in HVACR working on pharmaceutical freezers and the like.

Thanks for that comment.At this point I’m def trying to decide between a HELOC or a 2nd mortgage to fund this endeavor. 2nd seems more financially smart but since I’m a newby and likely to try to do 2 staggered investments spaced out, the HELOC seems more flexible and appropriate.

Your lease should include a "right to quiet enjoyment" clause that basically says everyone has a right to enjoy the property in peace.
