There's nothing better than "proactiveness" when it comes down to Real Estate; we all agree that prevention is much better than cure aka "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure".

However if it is already a 2 unit property, there may be zoning restrictions preventing it from going to a 3 unit property.

Sounds like you had your license and that knowledge clearly didn't prevent you from problems. 

That would probably prevent someone from stealing your photos.

The condo association might also want to stipulate what kind of business you run there with the sale of the land (in an effort to prevent you from opening a noisy bar or medical marijuana shop). 

So you get to withdrawal when you need it which prevents you from paying interest on money that you're not using yet.www.valuepenguin.com/cash-out-refi-vs-home-equity-loan-vs-heloc

What would probably be ideal is a condo so I do not have to worry about extra costs to the extent a homeowner does, i.e. replacing the roof or a clogged sewer line.

It's all the same just more asses clogging up the toilets.

Here, if I were to buy a 2 family for $500,000 putting down 20% is $100,000 out of my pocket to maybe (IF and that's a big IF they paid me and nothing broke,clogged etc.) make a couple of hundred bucks a month ,whereas that same $100,000 in another market could get me into a few of houses,potentially making a few of hundred bucks on each one.Now, I'm in no position to be giving advice seeing as the only property I own is what I live in and I haven't owned an investment property in over 10 years but I would say if you live in or near the area where you're considering buying turnkey and are relatively familiar with it thats a good start.  

Hi my name is Jesus and i want to start my carrier in real estate by obtaining my real estate licence In Phoenix Arizona..But unfortunately I ran into trouble when I was a teenager and got sent to the department of corrections, my question is to those real estate agents or people involved in real estate in Phoenix Arizona, will this felony prevent me from getting the real estate licence...
