I plan to put two duplexes on the property but with this high appraisal is there a smarter thing to do to pull that money out of it or just use it for better collateral for the construction loan most banks will lend on the transfer price within a seasoning period. we face the same issues for land entitlement and development.

Why do you think folks are so afraid to speak up? 

I'm an ACRE member, and am enjoying getting to know folks there.

Hi all,I can use software to conduct 95% of all property / tenant / cleaning  tasks, except... for showing the property to interested tenants.I don't know that this would be an issue, as I'll be doing MTRs and most folks may be out of town anyway.But does anyone here have ideas or suggestions for how I should think about this?

I admire the folks who made money investing at 0, and riding it up to 1, over whatever time period.

Would love to connect to more folks who live in Saskatchewan.

Currently we have about 135 tenants, not including parents who call/email me whenever they want due to having a bunch of needy, entitled honestly 22ish year olds.   

And folks from the mid west would say 3 to 4k  and some would say 5k with most folks thinking these days 10k is enough.. and then just as you say work the math backwards at 300 a month which is pretty tough to make if your max leverage and you have your answer of how many houses you have to own and manage.

Quote from @Scott Trench: Hi Folks - I am fishing for more advice from the experts in the forums here. 

Ugh, Madhuri, as someone who is heavily invested in Detroit and helps a LOT of out-of-state investors get started there, this makes me sick.I talk to about a dozen folks per week looking to invest in Detroit and I've heard my fair share of Flip Systems folks.
