It was a fun ride, but the corporate drag, not to mention cross-country commute became less than appealing… Thankfully it introduced me to RE.My goal is to begin accumulating small, MF properties.

After the inside of the house was completed, the outside painted and the landscaping cleaned up and given curb appeal.

However, buying it for no money down as @Edward Powell referred to and being able to rent it right away is definitely appealing.

I shouldn't see a drastic bump there in the forseeable future and may even be able to lower it through appeal.

The one strategy that appealed to me was the lease option strategy and someone pointed out these things about them; Advantage with LOA (Lease Option Assignments) vs Wholesaling.

There are lots of bad areas and lots of rooming houses that appeal to college students but I did see lots of nice neighborhoods - not very many of those homes for sale or for rent.

The value-add is in improving the curb appeal, landscaping, and interior upgrades.6.

We've been in the student rental industry for a while now, and although it had much luster and appeal in the beginning, it does come with its major work and responsibilities.

No big deal because I cash flow $260 a month now (after appealing my taxes) Be careful around hudson county taxes are high, but I can refer you to my tax attorney who appealed my taxes - got them lowered $2500 - I paid him $500 to do it.

It looks so appealing.
