I painted it, redid the floors, put on new doors and hardware, fixed all the existing issues (leaks in roof, toilets not working, sinks leaking, water damage on exterior and upgraded the panel to a 220V) What was the outcome?

I'm definitely the "play it safe" type, which is why the buy-and-hold strategy appeals to me, and because this is all new to me I want to "start off slow", but I am open to hearing thoughts on other options I could consider as well.Put simply, if you were in my shoes, what would you do with that capital and now with one property under your name (if buy-and-hold is the most appealing strategy to you)?

Quote from @Evans Debeza: Hi All, I am new to real estate investing and am looking for ways to help help me expand my knowledge and experience in the business as I look to grow my portfolio (currently have two properties, one ground-up, one flip & rent, both totaling 5 rental units).

@Josh Early @Matt McMacken - I'm considering starting one at my new office location at 1555 state st. 

HiI am interested in investing in a property (located in New Jersey) with a few other investors. 

If the seller cant get a new loan because of their debt ratio from seller financing or subject to, do a mirror wrap so their DTI can get serviced at least at 70%.

Could someone clarify how a cash out refinance would work after new construction.

I would love to continue to flip houses but now having two little boys makes the "live-in" part a little difficult.Outside of real estate and taxes, I enjoy spending time with my family, whether at the beach or in the backyard, and sharing new experiences with my 2 sons. 

I am new to this group/forum, thanks for having me.

We do cross-collateralization with a 1st lien on the new property and a 2nd on a rental to cover more of the purchase price and possibly some of the rehab to allow for a BRRRR scenario.
