If I sold my rental at what I bought it for, I would obtain 15k equity for the multifamily.

I recently bought a property June 1st for 35k the closing was 1,650$ total but that was a cash sale .

My question is - is this a marketing thing or a true determination of what purpose they can be bought for? 

I just bought my first live in duplex in Goshen, A meet up would be cool.

hey everyone i went to the bank and applied for a loan to see what happens and i was approved for 150k what would be the best move for me as i have never bought realestate before and have income only from my business.

Update : Discovery / HGTV bought the house and will be restoring it to 1970s style “HGTV will restore the 2,500-square-foot, two-story home, which backs up to the L.A.

And if you bought in CA 5 years ago in most markets you got to ride the appreciation title wave that those that dont invest in CA say you should never do and your just lucky but there are tons of lucky millionaires in CA that this happened to.So you need to define what a deal is how much work you want to put into it. and in my mind if your in the mindset of cash flow real estate for the remainder of your life then dont get put on the side lines becasue you think the market is a tad to high or that some future event is going to create a buying opp .. 

I bought in with my sweat. 

Cause I sure don't know.So personal experience and verifiable references are probably the gold standard. 

I just bought a house at auction in Pasco County FL.
