More units (usually) less risk (financially).

I am new into investing and was wondering if I should take the risk and invest into it granted I do not know much about foundations of a home. 

@Louis SulekBack in the 60s & 70s, I lived in Bellville and Trenton (Carrying Place) and my father lived there during the 80s while he flew out of CFB Trenton.There is enough rotation through the air base, that there should be a firm rental market.

A custom trust document can be thousands of dollars, title work always costs more than really necessary, and I end up writing most of my own contracts now anyway (at a fair amount of risk I'm sure). 

I'm exited about jumping into buy and hold real estate to even out the risk/volatility of owning a business. 

If you research it, you will find out what works best for you, considering the risks you're willing to take.

If my closing costs would be reduced if the seller agrees to carry a note in lieu of a traditional mortgage, can I offer a bit extra on the purchase price?

After two years, I require some increase even if it's only 2%.If it is winter, I won't allow M2M without an increased rent because the risk of vacancy is much higher.

If you can put the deal together and find your buyer the financing through a private money lender or a traditional bank that's easy to work with, that's going to make it much easier for you to sell that property and add value than it would be to do cash-and-carry.

Does anyone have any suggestion on Builder's risk insurance?
