I am looking to get started with single or multi family homes and would like to grow a portfolio however I can.

I inspected a single family home a few weeks ago which had been 'pre-inspected' by another local home inspector at the behest of the realtor who had the home listed for sale.

I would just like to write a quick introduction about myself: I am 31, single, no family, I work in Underwriting, a former and still licensed Flight Instructor, and a current law student.

My full time job is on base and I closed on a foreclosure Friday, and closed on another single family home today.

I have purchased 2 lots and I will be tearing down the current structures and replacing with new single family homes between1600 and 2500 sqft and am considering going modular instead of stick built.

Right now, my plan is to focus on a single niche, and then branch out into other forms of investing after I get some experience.I've observed BP's community to be very forthcoming in the sharing of information and I hope to be able to contribute one day myself.  

I do not know your area, but some areas just do not make good financial sense for renting single-family houses.

Its no different than buying a single condo.  

For comparison, another house of similar size they did was $14k.

How is buying a single family for investment purposes different (from a lending perspective)?
