Hello Michael, I think with so many ways to get started in investing you're bound to find numerous opinions on what is "the best" place to start.What are your mentors telling you?

Lastly, I took back a few properties a few years back in my volatile markets that I was ok selling on the cheap because my health at the time didn't justify the energy to rehab and retail them to non-existent buyers.All lead to reasons why you can only establish a criteria as a buyer and try to stay within it.

Hi @ art warren. welcome to bp where i have found a wealth of information and tips thru the podcast and many of the conversations in the posts. i too have a full time job in the federal criminal justice field and enjoy rehabs, upgrades, etc on homes. and i also know several guys who work for at bush int airport parttime for the flight and health benefits and held down a full time job working with me at the post office on the north side many years ago. now i am kicking myself for not doing the same back then or else i would also be retiring from continental/united also. well good luck and see you in another post.

He has mentioned the carpets to me numerous times and I have noticed that there are more runs than there were initially (mind you while I was building storage units in the basement I could hear the dogs running back and forth and skidding on the carpets for hours).

Whats the HOA's financial health?

I can bank 50K rather quickly with this job.This is actually a big risk for me as I would lose the disability money (which I want to) and there is still some health uncertainty and the job is across the country.I owe about $40K on the house and could probably sell or remortgage for $80--90.You may be wondering about these numbers.

Currently I am laid off but getting tons of offers so will not be for long due to numerous offers.
