Don't do that, get your degree and get something from school - we're so deep into this "bull market" a time is going to come to buy tons and tons of properties but it just isn't right now.

I've been here long enough to understand something of the hip-deep, ossified institutional racism of the city as it plays out on the map.

If this is the case most community banks look to see your performence before they get to deep into lending to you. 

Since you are in inspections, this is probably your best chance to try and knock down the offer price to help with the rehab estimates...perhaps that will give you a little breathing room should the rehab or sales go long? 

While bridge lenders will go below 1.25, agency debt typically requires it, and it will also provide you some breathing room in case vacancy is higher than expected or your rent bumps do not pan out as expected.2.

You guys will hear about this deal more when I tell Brandon and David all about it in the "deal deep dive" 5 years from now ;)

Just make sure to leave some breathing space for reserves and future down payments. 

@Juline Rensch just my thoughts without digging too deep in addition to what the others have said.

Dennis:I just was not going deep enough to first figure out what would make sense for me and the market.

Though I met a lot of awesome people there, the job was polluted with favoritism and overall showed me I rather pursue my own passion which is living, eating, breathing the research and study of economics, market analysis, calculating the cash flows for various potential investment opportunities and generally being my own business man excites me like no other career path could."
