I've faced a similar dilemma over the last couple years of whether to save up and pay cash or mortgage up.

I have experienced several occasions recently where I am faced with the decision to spend the money to repair or replace the appliance.

We weren't using the cabin as frequently as the years passed, and even though it barely cost us anything ($250 a month or less  in taxes/insurance/utilities'), we still hardly made it up there. 

It's a bummer there are no opportunities for group meet-ups right now, as I feel like I could really use some face-to-face time with more seasoned investors, but forums will have to suffice for now.

Motivated seller lead generation.Do searches for that and that is how to start your wholesaling career.I am partial to SEO and having a credible website, it is the best and I spit in the faces of anyone that dares telling me it is not the best.

Many of the notes we buy have a face rate over 6% so it is easy to show them the kind of savings they would get over a 15 or 30 year term in the current under 3% mortgage refinance rate. 

There is no issue with this on its face, but if you ever need to replace the management company, and the in-house manager was charging below market rates (there is a chance they do this to make more money on the sale, since they are the flipper too), your returns will take a hit.

If anyone has any advice they would be willing to share with someone who is just barely figuring things out, I would greatly appreciate it!

So many people think they need to buy a SF or dupelx on their own and end up spending a ton of money on it, cash flow very little and spend a bunch time time and effort for little results, when they had an alternative strategy staring them in the face. 

Are you semi booked, fully booked or barely getting any bookings?
