I am looking to get started in rental properties, I do photography on the side and I currently work full-time. 

I think this is why they wanted to attach the licensing requirement to these kinds of deals - to give them the broad leeway they want in saying what people can or cant do without having to write 4,000 laws.I don't know that this law as it's currently written will withstand the suits that are sure to come from investors asserting that the marketing of a contractual position to buy a property is not captured by the wholesaling definition (and I don't think that it is).

I would recommend find a nice 2-4 unit in a class A/B area and put 25% down for a buy/hold, it will cashflow and give you a high total return (rent growth, cashflow, appreciation, tax write offs) and be a very profitable low risk investment.

It's not for a lack of trying.I've asked him to try working some other channels to see what we can put together for you.Sorry for any slow communication; it's a crazy time in the markets and the low/tight inventory has made it rather challenging for everyone in the industry.I'll follow up with Micheal more tomorrow.Feel free to contact me anytime!

Because my current property has a $150K mortgage, I would either pay cap gains on that pay off amount at closing or...2.

Hey,I just recently moved to Austin, TX and currently attending Champions School of Real Estate to obtain my license.

Begin to network and never stop educating yourself.If you ever consider the Kansas City area, I'd be happy to discuss the current market with you.

Currently, the property is vacant.

Seller's current asking price is $525,000 but I was thinking of asking at $450,000.Property is zoned CMX-1 and is currently configured as commercial downstairs plus two apartments upstairs and basically in Shell condition.

My main goal is to house hack and make my monthly expenses as low as possible.
