So if you started today you would probably be looking at 2026 before it was completed if I had to hazard a guess.Can you clarify how much you plan to invest in real estate?  

I think the before vs after pictures really speak primarily to your experience and ability to execute a project so it can help lenders gain comfort with future projects and allow you demonstrate what level of detail you except out of your contractors.

That is just not realistic.To illustrate this.. lets run this experiemtn.Imagine me giving 4000 people, that same list of 2000 contacts... what your claim then states... that pretty much 4000 people will all make a deal from 2000 leads.So 2 different people make a deal from ONE single house.So that too is proven wrong.So the way THEY told you that claim is completely wrong, and logically impossible.

So far the biggest challenges for out of state investments has been finding reliable contractors or help to complete projects on time and under budget.

I definitely don't think its gonna get worse from here I think the complete opposite.

You can learn just about anything you need to complete a small project off YouTube and with the right tools.  

@Xavier Mc holder yes I did eventually complete that project.  

So, I reached out to a local brokerage, and they referred me to an agent with significant experience.This man has built a $30 million portfolio himself, and in just a couple of meetings, he completely shifted my perspective.

The tax benefits refer to the tax deductions from mortgage interest and property tax.The returns mainly rely on appreciation, and the cash flow only improves in the last few years, also depending on securing the 5% refinance rate.I've learned a lot from this forum, but as I start to operate on my own, I'm still not completely confident.

Everything I have seen under 200k here are complete tear downs.
