I would absolutely LOVE to connect with experienced real estate investors/professionals who wouldn't mind helping a young 20-something get into the game and navigate all the landmines that I do not even know exist.Excited to be part of the community,Justin

I think Kennedy was funding just enough deals that they were able to skate by with not getting hit with lawsuits and things like that. 

I am a contractor by trade and understand the costs/processes to build, but I am lacking in how to determine a proper sale price with little data. 

In Florida, the landlord is not allowed to do malicious things like remove doors, turn off utilities, etc.  

I've never managed books for any kind of investor, but I'm a quick learner and excited by the possibility of getting my feet wet in the field of investing. 

@Kenneth Soles  I have done this too many times to count.and after all the years of dealing with folks that lost their home be it tax foreclosure ( very very rare on the west coast by the way)  or Trustee or Sherrifs sale ( most common).Rent back can work but usually turns into an eviction shortly .Sell it back is another pipe dream.. unless your willing to owner finance it.. then you have the dodd frank stuff if you want to be letter of the law compliant.

It is valued by what people are willing to pay. 

My degree may not be my passion, but I know it will provide an income that I can leverage into something else (I've already started working).Currently, I am living in a home owned by a relative, and my rent is impressively discounted.

@Candice Cervantes, to expand on what Zach notes:You will be bound by any lease agreement with the current tenant.  

Just sold one and have two under contract that will go on the market soon.Novations is allowing us to monetize more leads by presenting an offer that is better suited for someone not desperate to sell but who wants a guaranteed net price.
