@Sarah Brown For note funds, look at the profiles of the frequent posters on this forum category.

But honestly, I think your low profile mission friend probably made 5-10x what fortunato ever did.

Try looking at some listings in your area and search for their profile. 

Just my 2 cents but there is not a one size fits all as geography, amount of $ you have, age, risk profile and replacement income trying to get to makes a huge difference. 

And yet, your profile here doesn't even indicate the state where you are licensed.

I would be looking for stability, tenant profile, income but most importantly cash flow!

@Tracy Opoku You can see it on my profile if you would like!

Since your profile is devoid of any info, I can’t tell what your background is or if you have any experience, but I’m assuming you may just be getting started.

I could easily create a profile, market a property I do not own or even have access to, and collect payments for months before the first guest would show up and discover the house is actually occupied by an 87-year-old homeowner.

When you find deals cheap, you have more options: you can wholesale for a quick few bucks, fix up and refinance for a rental or rehab and sell to make the bigger kinda quick bucks.Your profile says that you are getting your masters in Business.
