Given that an FHA loan has an occupancy requirement, after a year of living in the purchased unit, I would move out and subsequently collect a healthy cash flow from tenants.Once finished, I aim to wash, rinse, and repeat the process all over again I know this is easier said than done, but I'm going to try to get pre-approved for a loan in the next few months so I can pull the trigger when the time is right.My goal:To create a $3,000 per month passive income stream from my property portfolio in five years.Thanks for reading my post and I look forward to hearing from everyone!

I found some really good reports/slide decks that illustrate how even the tiniest of changes can increase or decrease response rates:http://www.the-dma.org/whitepapers/TestingDMWhitePaper-GAWrightFINAL100305.pdfThen some metrics about direct mail:http://www.ruthstevens.com/pdf/Allegra-DM-White-Paper-FINAL.pdfHead on over to Sharon's blog and watch her video interview with Joy Gendusa of Postcardmania and then pick up a free copy of Joy's e-book on postcards and direct mail:http://louisvillegalsrealestateblog.com/amazing-entrepreneurs-interview-with-joy-gendusaDan Kennedy has a ton of books on direct mail marketing that are filled with some excellent points - if you have an Amazon Kindle, you can check out some of his books for free - start with the relevant titles first.I've got two more months of postcards queued up before I can start doing any real testing, but I was able to expand my list to just a little over 7500 names, split it into 4 groups of almost exactly equal size.

However, after THAT 3 day IRS audit, I somewhat survived, the wife insists I go to her accountant from now on to relieve her stress.Doing your books monthly gives you a wake up call to financial issues that many let slide & I personally want to stay in tune with the intricacies of RE investment tax issues.
