Coffeyville Kansas, $9500 will buy a person a 3BR with CH/A in a decent neighborhood.If they can do a trade like welding, pipefitting or electrical work; there are plenty of job opportunities at the local refinery.

I’ll trade that over bout anything.

And maybe I can find a mentor who will help me learn the tricks of the trade.

That is the trade-off for the added security of being super-diversified.

I’m a registered nurse by trade and looking to invest for my growing family’s future (expecting my 2nd baby later today!)

First, a second eye on evaluation -- I am an operations manager by trade and I am acutely trained to think of all potential outcomes, costs, risks, etc., and I can lend my expertise at various stages of the deal.

Again, it keeps upfront money in your pocket so it's just a trade-off of down payment vs cashflow you need to analyze.3.

He was the primary property manager and jack of all trades for the properties, but recently he had a massive stroke.

For our first deal I'm willing to take just about anything to learn the trade.

And to clarify a point...It makes no difference whatsoever who “files” foreclosure/NOD first, only who gets to the sale/ auction first If the first mtg foreclosed first (got to the auction first) the second no longer has any lien on the property (assuming they were named/served)If the second forecloses first, the first mtg remains and their foreclosure proceeds unaffected.
