@Troy GorospeWe've helped many investors just like yourself build a successful rental portfolio across numerous cash flow markets.

With #3 above, your success should include some measure of reward to celebrate.

If there are numerous items that can be life threatening or costly; for example, the rough in and insulation was not inspected before close in then I would get a hold of the previous owner and tell them they sold a house that was not allowed to be occupied.

Just for me the reward wasn't worth the risk. 

Personally, I travel internationally a lot and so I like the Chase Bank Visa point system, as I use a sapphire card personally and can then xfer points out to various airlines and hotel groups.The Points Guy is kind of like Biggerpockets, but for CC reward points.

I have read numerous books, analyzed many deals, listened to about 100 hours of podcasts, watched many BP webinars, and am always scouting around BP forums/blogs.

I understand risk is greater with the first but so will be the rewards. 2.

I think getting your license can be very rewarding

Hi Flora,Ground up development can be very complex, but also very rewarding when done correctly.

These are fairly low risk / low reward properties mainly bought by cash flow investors for 5% CoC,  but without using much leverage.
