It also made analyzing deals easier because I knew my financing costs ahead of time.As to finding the deal first - I noticed when I went to local REIA groups that there were tons of people pursuing that strategy, while the few people with money got to cherry pick.

I wasn't a huge fan of the efficiency either, but I went ahead since there were 2 other units with multiple bedrooms.

I am trying to set this up myself.Thanks ahead of time... 

Really just trying to gain as much experience or knowledge ahead of time.

Had I not moved to a house the following year, I would have paid a little more each month for a place with off-street parking, especially now that I've gotten a new vehicle.

I want to use my time, sweat and capital to invest in making neighbourhoods safer, desirable and affordable without getting too far ahead of myself or inclinations as a property investor/ rehabber.I hope that is not too much to say in my intro...

The next best are those that plan ahead and have a place to move sooner rather than later.

I'm thinking I'll go ahead and try advertising now and see what happens.

At the end of the day, real estate investing is the vehicle I hope to obtain freedom from a job, not to have an additional job.

The seller was at the showing and the agent warned me ahead that he was $90,000 FIRM it is what he needed (he bought it at an estate sale), and was flipping.
