I was planning to start small, very small to prove to my husband that we have to start somewhere THIS YEAR instead of waiting at the side for another year.

Same goes for doctors, dentists who own their own practice etc etc.So if you don’t want to partner, don’t have millions and don’t earn 100s of thousands at your day job, and don’t have enough equity in other properties, you’ve got one more option..Seller financing.

I'm proud of my new achievement and can't wait to start my new career. 

wait wait wait.You are a soldier and your wife a cop?!

Should I just focus on paying down student debt and wait on real estate?

Wait a few days and, assuming the price works for you, offer less than the number she told you she would take.  

I had the cleaner get a quote for the paint and it’s thousands and a home owners claim would also be over a thousand.

I’m really excited to get started and I’m hoping these forums will bolster my enthusiasm.I’m trying to get to the bottom of HELOC money “seasoning” because once I get access to the cash I really don’t want to wait for two more months to make a deal!

Now our plan is to purchase a second property and house hack that as well but we’re being told we have to wait for our refi to ‘Season’ before we buy another property as owner occupied.
