I love to eat!

RE Investing is typically "off the MLS" so it's a completely different animal.

But based on the the HOA fee, which is eating away most of the rental income, it does not look like a deal.

And I can assure you the seller you are talking with has had difficulty and will have difficulty selling because of an uncontrolled animal that nearby.The fact that you are even discussing it should prove to you that your prospective tenants/buyers are going to be deterred.

I am very bubbly and pleasant open to talking to people (even when I am nervous)Things I like to do (when not super charged on building extreme wealth)-Watch Japanese anime and Read Manga books-Go outside to the parks and walk-Go fishing-chill with my friends and family-and study concepts of finance, economics, tax law and business & wealth building ( i really do this with my spare time too lol )Things I'd love to try doing-Go camping some more-Go indoor rock climbing-go Kayaking!

If you need to actually buy the property (possibly rehab it) and sell it retail it seems thin since all the transactional, financing fee and holding costs will eat up a lot of that equity fast.The various L/O options could make it work.

I would tell my clients "if you want to lose weight, you gotta eat less".
