At the end of my first calendar year, I had little evidence to support continuing.

Dear Friends and Fellow Investors 
I am reaching out to citizens of Fremont Ca and even those outside to help me push City of Fremont Building Department  to bring about some necessary good changes! Building anything...

You first have to determine if you must have that cash flow to support yourself.

Do they support the value you need to spend the money to convert it to a duplex?  

Basically your skin in the game.

You are asking people to invest their money in a project with a young person with no experience and who will have no 'skin in the game'.

I have been a chiropractor for 18 years and am looking to get into buy and hold real estate investing that can support me in retirement.

Not exactly with me as an investor...but I was building a house for an investor so I guess that counts...So I was walking through a rough inspection with a newer Building Inspector and he was calling out all kinds of mistakes he was seeing - where's the 4x4 from that top plate to the beam....where's the support for the brace?

I don't remember ever seeing a national bank or mortgage co or broker support youth sports or the arts or anything in my community.
