@Minnina SmithTo buy your first rental property, assess your financial situation, educate yourself on real estate investing, set goals, build a team, analyze deals, get pre-approved for loans, and start property hunting.

It’s not fair that those people don’t have to register so everyone knows where they live but because sex offenders do it means they don’t have a right to live in nice places when all they want to do is get their life’s back on track but the rest of the world blacklists them or tries to hunt them down when it’s nobody’s business but the police and they should be the only ones who get to know where they live but the government has ruined that and put sex offenders lives at risk by putting their info out for the public even after they served their time.

Also advertising costs.On loans, I would hunt for an 5 year fixed interest only with low pre-pay penalties that you can refi when rates finally come down (hopefully).Landscaping / snow removal is legit and is more viariable than you would expect.

I think I might have started this thread a couple of years back and am in VB as well, so interested to see if its getting any footing.Sounds like some have had success with it, so I guess I gotta get back on the hunt for them. 

Renting as a vacation rental might work during hunting season but there really isn't much to do there that would attract vacationers in the winter.

Just cause you hunt or target practice in your backyard.

Am anti hunting,  anti clear cutting and and forcest destruction and animal habitat clearing.

Consequently, there's no "bargain hunting" for good properties.

I do some work for a foundation company (GL Hunt) over at http://plano.texasfoundationpros.com/ ...
