I am always open to connect and I have a monthly real estate meetup which is great to get to talk with like minded people.Kurt 

Keep in my mind cash flow is higher than others due to the fact that I do all the maintenance myself and I manage the property myself.What I’m getting at is that like my books say, the deals aren’t going to jump out at you.

Keep in mind your primary residence counts as 1.

I agree with Peter, if you are not using a mortgage contingency and don't mind the risk to lose earnest money, I still consider it a cash offer. 

I now tie my identity to daily activities (learning and improvement) and the results are taking care of themselves.I am understanding and gaining control over my mind (your #1 above).I hit the gym first thing in the morning and eat a can of tuna and low sugar protein shake for breakfast...a workout and 45 grams of protein is a good way to kick off the day. 

And keep in mind that the tax records mention of zoning may not be correct.

I'd love to meet other like minded individuals across the state (RI as well).

Hi Tyana,I just received my license and affiliated with a broker over the last few weeks so everything is fresh in my mind.

They are functional.

Just keep that in mind when doing your calculations.
