I'd probably try and find out the real HOA charge instead of an estimate before you pull the trigger.

@James Galla Yup my spreadsheet gathers info from Zillow, Redfin, Trulia, and past sales info if available.I don’t know where to find a AVM software without paying and what is referenced earlier.When it comes to finding a realtor to do appraisals this is off market and I’m sure they wouldn’t be happy to put together info on a 12 property package.I have reached out to a couple BPO outfits locally to see what their pricing is.Looks like I have my bases covered, I guess I just have to pull the trigger.

Real estate is one of those things you can study for years until you actually pull the trigger and acquire your first property.

They had decent products (~5% for 5/1 arm at 30 year term) but very high pre payment penalty which gets triggered by even small early payments.Appreciate any insights and references.ThanksG(someone from

To highlight the basics of DD, we like to break those up into 4 areas: financials, initial walkthrough, compliance, and paid inspections/services.We like to begin with the items that require just your time, but not money.

I apologize for the long post in advance :)Anyways, it's been awhile since I've visited BP but over the past couple of years I've been looking into buying rental properties for passive income (but too "scared" to pull the trigger).

I’m still learning but i’ll get there so i can one day pull that trigger!

This would allow us to see how close we are getting and eventually build up a person's confidence to pull the trigger on an offer. 

Remember once you pull that trigger don't be so conservative with a few dollars trying to get a "Home Run" as your first deal, just get on base and learn.
