We rarely have issues, but it seems like such a small investment in time and money to take one day to verify.

I am open to connecting with other investors like me who work on their investments and the investment services world.

I plan to stay in this general area for at least the next 20 years and think buying real estate would be a great way to diversify my investment portfolio.So in almost any scenario you will come ahead buying vs renting over twenty years probably well less than half of that, but the investment you are making is a long term investment you probably won’t be able to leave after a year or two and rent for more than your mortgage, I’d really think about where you want to live medium-long term, than any investment metric, because the longer you stay the better the investment looks, and if you can move out sooner great, but I’d guess at minimum you’d have to stay 5 years before rents would catch up to your mortgage. 

Quote from @Aj Green: Hey,(Posting again as I sign today so it is urgent)Is there any cheaper lender than a 6.75% for an Ohio investment property.No brokers fees, 110k, no points, 760+ credit score, 20% down, 140k value, no realtors, single family, rent covers mortgage, 30 year term fixed.Thanks for the help!

Still, I think you'd find it difficult to find one that would be a good long-term investment unless you had another ~20-30 years to go, it's at least cash neutral, and you don't plan to hold it too long (to avoid too much investment loss and before you get to the point where it's unsellable because of too few years left); that's another way of saying that maybe it suits your cash needs in the near-term or is at least less of a pill to swallow than other options until you find something that's more of a sensible long-term play

I tried attending one in my local market a couple of times but felt like I was in some hotel ballroom being pitched on how the 12 year-old kid up in front would teach us all how to run to the back of the room to swipe $10K on our AMEX for the secrets of real estate investing.

Quote from @Robel Nessro: Hi I am 18 years old and I've been really interested in Commercial Real Estate investing since I was 16 and I don't much about CRE investing and I would really love some advice on how too start funding your first property, and where I can learn CRE investing,  I've also been thinking about joining the Air Force so that I can buy my first commercial property using the VA loan and continue from there and buy more, but I don't know if that's a good idea or not.

We invest locally and enjoy being involved in the projects.
