Here is a summary of the book.https://www.nateliason.com/notes/long-distance-real-estate-investing-david-greeneIn terms of location, I like starting in the Midwest because it's affordable and offers good cash flow.

I've been here for decades, had pride in what I offered.

They were able to offer a 1st position loan based off the property and income, and the seller was allowed to offer financing, but in a 2nd position.  

Why not purchase several because each property can pay for itself and I am seeing all of these lenders flooding my Facebook now that I have googled some loan options- and so many offer 100% financing... what am I missing here?

Known for its growing economy due to government and tech sector jobs, Huntsville offers a stable rental market with potential for appreciation.

I'm just offering some thoughts, and would love to hear anyone's responses
