@Michael DeRienzo the biggest challenge with a flip is the buy and renovate costs.

The biggest critique I feel like I’ve heard is that you’re using after tax dollars to repay pre tax dollars.I felt fine doing that- accessing money now rather than 3 decades later, and the interest charge goes to me.In my perspective, it’s another line to access capital.

My biggest hurdle is funding right now but with enough practice, I'll jump over.

The biggest thing I can say is look at all the possible earning scenarios for the property and decide if it fits what you want and can afford.  

If you want, I can plug you in with a lender who specializes in these and other state loan incentives.

The quality of your tenants are what will have the biggest impact on your happiness.

I think the biggest piece of the puzzle is to identify which category you fall in. 

My biggest asset is my mobility, since I'm single and travel 80% of the time for work on a regular basis.

In my experience those programs are more comparable with the coaches on "the biggest loser" than being a purchased magic pill that suddenly makes all the changes, so either way it's gotta be you who does it, only question is if on your own or with an expensive coach chasing behind cracking a whip on ya to keep you moving forward at it. 

The biggest challenge was closing as COVID-19 was hitting the population and beginning renovations on the property while preparing to reside in it and both of us deploying in the next year.
