Its $2k to start and was wondering if it is worth for them to build the Paydex and build up my business credit. 

With one million dollars and picking up the houses while distressed and refinancing you can build an extensive STR portfolio. 

Could treat you to a nice steak dinner ( 2 years ago since prices have tripled).Just build it correctly. ( within code).Good Luck 

I don't see a prior Vacant Building Notice so from my understanding, I shouldn't expect to see a U&O.Here's an example:https://cels.baltimorehousing.org/TL_TM_MAP.aspx?

Jonathan does a fantastic job of trying to caution brand new investors from sinking their live savings into something they're just going to lose money on.okay that aside.  

After doing a lot of research, I'm getting close to sign a contract for a new build (4bd/3ba) in the Creek Meadow area.

BUT they go into what they're currently working on, what/who they're seeking at this event, and I get a good sense of where they're at along their journey.One of the best books I read on the subject of effective networking/relationship building was Never Eat Alone by Keith Ferrazi. 

Yes, private money, but you need to build up some reps and proof of concept so friends and family can see what you have done.

Also, in Southern CA, we have a lobbying group named the BIA (Building Industry Association)...they lobby for pro housing legislation both at the state level and city/county level. 

I gave him some ideas, (OKC, Omaha, parts of TX) and he was dead set on the south.Thought this would be an interesting question that if you want to build a portfolio but only could target homes under 250k to hold as rentals, where would you look?
