The owner can't possibly take that many calls and run that many comps, view all those houses and make offers.This is not the kind of work you can outsource to just anyone.

Is it possible to get that?

Reading a couple books, going to Invest Gainesville REI meetings, and doing as much consumption of bigger pockets as possible has been my curriculum.

The only thing I do know is if they're absentee or O.O. and what the home looks like and what it's possibly worth.

Thank you Jason Million I am going to talk to my lender and figure out what they know, and will touch base as soon as possible.

Is this even possible?

I can possibly help, PM me so we can chat.  

Hope I can learn the most here at Bigger Pockets and possibly even more! 

If you purchase a property in the Midwest for $30k at a "20 cap", and you get lucky that CapEx doesn't kill you, and lets assume that you earn $500/month of true cash flow even after 10 years of holding (this would probably never happen, but I am giving your statement every possible benefit of the doubt).Or, you purchased a $500k property in Northern California at a "3.5 cap", this was bought at a true market cap -- no discount.

I'd like to avoid a personal loan if possible.
