So if your market is a bit challenging, get in some of the more welcoming markets - Ohio, Michigan where the entry is not high and its easier to get started. 

@Michael SchwobThere is no problem with investing at an early age but there are some challenges. 

Challenging a flawed mortgage I have read a few stories about home owners challenging flawed mortgages, and getting 1st position bank notes extinguished. 

I know very little about rehab or construction, so I am worried about taking on a fixer without a knowledgeable partner.My biggest challenge so far is how to accurately determine AVR without experience.

Our challenge now is that we got the check from the pension plan and don't know what path to follow.

I was told by the city because he is challenging the validity of the sheriff's sale it is now a civil matter.  

Well for non performing notes the due diligence is critical and getting a complete set of collateral files sometimes can be a challenge.

Due to the volume of business we give them we expect priority service and volume pricing.We are trying to get them to take before and after pictures of the job they are doing to be able to upload it in our portal so the owner can see what was done (that has proven to be a bit of a challenge with 3rd party contractors) our in-house maintenance team is required to take pictures and video of any job they do. 

In the current market here, flips can be challenging but are not impossible.  

Second only to the challenges of that disaster, property managers are the next nightmare.
