En Israel no tengo inversiones, aqui las propiedades son muy caras y los arriendos muy bajos, dicen que la ventaja aqui es el gran incremento de plusvalia pero segun lo que he aprendido aca en biggerpockets no es recomendable invertir en plusvalia dado que es muy riesgoso, sino que en Cashflow.

I did have one investor tell me that was the deciding factor since he didn't own a car as someone living in Manhattan.

They'll be jumping in the car as soon as you send them a new deal.Also make sure you look at the link for cash buyers I posted above.

I plan to get a cheap car, a place to stay, then look for work.

So If I rent one car a year I am already ahead of the game.The newer cars just do not last anymore.

I bought a car, a motorcycle, and spent the rest on nothing that was important.

@Cara Lonsdale Hi Cara; thanks a bunch!

We have spoken to a few modular home builders and we can get a 1300sf 3bed/2bath home with a 1 car a garage for about $65k or $50 per SF.

Instead of buying a newer truck, you could find a decent older truck for $4-5k and keep you current car as a daily driver.
