I'm just getting started but am in a similar situation with work and savings so I've researched this for my business plan.

I've saved up some money and am looking to get into investing but need to learn the best way to find deals and how best to use my money. 

The cost and time you spend doing this will be well worth the money you save on taxes.Good Luck,Allen Fletcher

We handle all of our own printing and we save about 1/3rd of typical printing costs. 

Assumptions:Money Saved - $40,000/year + proceeds from new propertiesCost of homes - $100,000% down - 25%Cash flow per month - $400/home

Act as if you were still renting - whatever you were paying in rent, make sure you save that money.

For others (most of our student housing) we advertise on-line.  

If they aren't online, you can stop at the county clerk's office and ask them how to look it up.

I did all the work myself to save money and completed those units this past May.  

Auction.com is hired by banks to sell assets to highest bidder through quasi on line auctions.in some states LIke Alabama they are actually the criers at the public court house auction.. if not sold there then those assets are brought into the loss mit departments then listed with auction to be sold on line at some point in the future.I like it as they require actual money to buy this stuff as in you need healthy deposits and REAL POF's and you can't assign contracts etc.. so it mitigates competition with the no money wholesalers that are out there by the millions  LOL..
