.$200 a door is a good target but less is fine if you see potential for increasing rents or reducing expenses within a year.

I am looking to network with some wholesalers, agents, or investors in order to get some more insight on the area before choose the farm area(s) that I would like to target in order to do buy and hold properties.

I have talked with ladies at Subway and Target in S.

What's your targeted ROI for flips?

The new mayor said that 2% growth is his target, but he doesn't expect to hit it.

As I am a newbie, I try to get involved and control the costs as much as possible. (2) My initial( and possibly naive) plan is to buy a house with $30K in cash, spend another $15k to  $20K on rehab, with the targeting APR value to be 80K or above.

The property would actually rent for closer to $900/mo which is 1% of the purchase price, a rough target I have been looking for in every property that I've been considering. 

I was targeting the foreclosure notices, expired listings from my wife's access and homes I saw driving around town.  

$250 worth of gas and snacks to drive for dollars down every street in your target neighborhood.

My plan is to targeting properties 80k and under and use the HELOC's for down payment and cash out refi after 6 months.
