But I also feel that over the last several years, many groups are getting greedy and wanting to be paid to transact more than buy good deals.  

Our goal is to start buying MF within the next year to two years.

We finally decided that we want to try to buy our first rental property.

I live in Orange County and I have been looking into some out-of-state investments for single family up to triplex for a buy and hold to build my rental portfolio.

I would think about your location, if there are a lot of young people who are looking to rent and don't have a lot of furniture yet it's probably a good idea.

I have 50k in equity built up and am looking to buy my first rental property, most likely a single family house.

I'm trying to figure out a strategy on buying real estate from the seller (who owns the property outright) on payments, adding value and reselling it for profit and thus, paying off the original seller.

Becoming a great time to buy. ;)

I recommend buying a 2-4 unit property to house hack rather than buy an individual apartment (condo or townhome).

I'm used to purchasing property all cash, but I want to buy another property within the next 2 months without waiting until I have enough cash to purchase because that'll be another 1-3 years of saving.
