Makes me wonder if I they only look at tax bracket a person is in at the year of sale or average things out. 

In trying to protect the average investor, they're also preventing them from having the same access to investments as those that are wealthy.

Wow I have a ton to learn... how can mean and average mean the same but not equal the same amo.. nevermind, I will just delete this line... 

I had a VA loan fall through on one property simply because the appraiser wrote in the appraisal that the property was in "below average" condition.

@Kyle Ferguson If financing is your issue, network with a successful mortgage broker who can is knowledgeable about the various products available to you in your area.

On average it takes 17 years for a stock to recover after a crash.

From the time the property is rented until it's fully seasoned and closed on will be, on average, 7 months.The size of the property and the scope of the renovation will definitely impact the time it takes to complete the renovation. 

That being said, for bridge products you may not need 20-25%.  

The products will always speak for themselves and I aim to never stray from delivering such a high level of quality rehab. 

If you are familiar with the term “Bird Dog”, a real estate agent is just a bird dog who is licensed to be one; 2) After getting your license, you’ll spend about $2,000 per year +\- to keep your license, regardless of whether or not you’ve actually made a dime, so be prepared to do something that first year to cover the cost of getting and keeping the license; 3) The average annual salary of a real estate agent is $42,000 per year according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the federal agency that tracks what different jobs pay across the country.
