If I am highly leveraged, which in most cases I am and on many of the houses I've purchased in the last three years as I have less than $10k in on each of them, my return is quite significant to say the least.Inherently, I see nothing wrong with buying affordable housing.

I'll add that if they had a bad tenant that trashed a unit, that unit could have been a long vacancy, with a high repair bill on top of that - this gets quite expensive, and if this owner was not adequately capitalized ...

I'm not quite sure on the exact procedural details (as far as the contracts and paperwork would go), but I've been browsing around the site, and I'm sure I'll keep running into good information.I'm really looking for any potential partners or mentors in Gainesville that could help me develop in this aspect.

Hello everyone,I was wondering what most of you real estate investors would consider the "ideal" number of properties to be able to quit your job and live comfortably without having the NEED to pick up another property.

I own a property in Indianapolis and it's performing quite well.Setup some keyword alerts, maybe one for "Los Angeles".

Sold my rental property, worked 4 years as an EMT/ Firefighter and now that my kids are grown up a little, I'm looking to get back in the game with my wife.I have worked with the city here on a number of rehabs and also have quite a bit of experience as a carpenter/ contractor.

If the three of you can come up with the $$ I would pay off the bank and have G-ma quit claim it to you.

It’s quite a characteristic of them.”Many wage earners are caught in a rat race.

I chose that site because it is suggested quite often on this site.

i would buy a property without central a/c if I could buy it low enough, add central a/c and still achieve the numbers I want. but depending on the part of Norfolk it's in, you may not even have to go through that trouble. in some areas it quite common and acceptable to have window a/c. as for letting tenants supply/install their own a/c, I wouldn't let them. i'm biased against letting tenants install fixtures after some experiences in my mom's rental. it's amazing how people can mess up the simplest task. if buying 10 window units doesn't break the bank and doesn't greatly affect your return then go for it. it's definitely favorable to have a/c in the bedroom from a tenant's view. hope everything works out!
