Looking at the local market and using some the tools to analyze properties it doesn’t seem to make sense where I currently live.

I.E. a $1,200 loss was like having another $100 a month loan.Some of the things I wrote off werePower tools needed for the business, lawyer and accountant bills, mileage, office supplies, new printer, storage area .....If you want to grow bigger than 1 rental, make sure to understand what a gain/loss will do to your buying power. 

All the tools you need are all around you.

Are properties appreciating in value?

Using any of the tools under the "education" tab at the top of this page?

I have been learning, researching, purchasing tools, networking etc but I feel like my heads been spinning on where to get started.

I buy a lot of tools, trucks, etc..
