If it's in an area where there is a lack of market activity always hit it at a minimum of 10%.

Frankly, the appraiser seemed super-lazy, and I bet he just put some number a bit higher than the purchase price so the sale goes through and he could go home without doing any actual work.

My focus is small multi family as I build up my reserves.I’m not very active with meet ups but I drive the state for my day job so I’m always on the hunt!

I have a few rental properties and have been actively wholesaling for a year now.

I agree to keep the license active may cost me more.

Glad to be part of such an active and helpful online community.

When I choose to take a more passive route I will likely combine the two, true MF in traditionally high appreciation markets.if you go the San Diego route there are additional options due to being local like house hacking, active sweat equity properties, self managed (provides a learning opportunity but is work), etc.Good luck

For instance, if you're in middle-management, then active investing might not be the best fit for you.

I’m finally making the move from simply lurking through the forums to being an active participant.

I would be actively involved in these flips: finding the deals, analyzing the deals, writing up the offers, doing some work myself (I'm semi-handy), working with contractors, and eventually selling the properties.Naturally, I started the hunt for properties!
