My number one reason to getting on BP is to network and learn a straight path to what I want to achieve so I dont have to make a lot of costly mistakes.

I would imagine if you were buying a fixer upper at a discount, or something that needed some TLC in this price range, a 10% appreciation after your repairs wouldn't be too difficult to achieve.

The key to creative financing is to understand how a conventional deal works, then to modify the various component parts in unconventional ways to achieve the desired results.

That is the goal I've set for myself and hopefully with BP's vast amount of information and helpful members will help me get achieve this goal of mine. 

I'm fired up to be a part of this site, share in discussions, and contribute some valuable information that can help you achieve your financial goals through Real Estate. 

I would network with people who are already doing what you would like to achieve in your market.

I personally wouldn't lend money out to others at this point until you have your desired monthly income reached for what you want to achieve. 

So, keeping LOs and MLOs under 36 months doesn't achieve your stated goal.  

Both units are equal with 800sqft.Rents:Unit 1 was rented for $750, lease expiring end of April.Unit 2 owner occupied, my property manager expected $950 on rent, I calculated for $900.So for both units I expected to achieve $1800 in rent, and hoped for $2000.
