If it is going to get stolen eventually, then I guess that is good news in a way because it is inevitable.Thanks.

Maybe the states will eventually just go with a "Stigma" clause to protect home buyers.

So, I came to BP to further educate myself and meet investors of all experience levels and more importantly, to get moving toward becoming an investor.My long term goals are to eventually replace earned income with passive income from long term rental property and to teach others to do the same.

I'd love to get your knowledge.Studying is great (feel free to check out my website if you're interested in rehabbing), but eventually you'll need to get out there and gain some real-world experience...and you're going to need to devote some time to that...When you're ready to start getting real-world experience, I highly recommend finding a successful investor doing whatever it is you want to do, and offer to work for him/her for free for 6 months -- even if it means getting coffee, doing errands or whatever -- in return for them training/teaching you.People think it's perfectly reasonable to go to school for many years to learn the ins and outs of their trade/career, yet can't seem to fathom spending 6 months devoting their time interning for free to gain real world experience.

A much better idea: Go make friends with a good contractor who knows investing and offer him several hundred bucks to come out and give you a full, written estimate to bring the house to the level you need it for your exit strategy.Do this many times over and eventually you'll get the hang of estimates.EVEN AMONG CONTRACTORS...

Many people move into a very expensive subdivision and areamainly because they want their children to have such a social network, which eventually may give rise to a huge economical return.

Eventually, it would be nice to flip houses and make it full time.

definitely better start networking and eventually partnering w those who have what you'll need... that or marry rich.. then it's kinda little or no money originating from you :)

I'm originally from KCK, and hoping to eventually invest there again.

Most cities will start charging for violations then they will eventually pay for demolition and stick you with the bill.
