4% might be the APR now, @Kevin Reik , but though there are fixed interest HELOCs with relatively high rates, most are variable, and interest rates are rising.

Avoid anyone with sex charges or with anything violent in their criminal records....no matter how long ago they assaulted someone or with drug charges. 

We've been eyeing West Seattle due to the relative affordability and landscape but her colleagues cautioned us not to live anywhere where we need to cross a bridge to get into the city due to the traffic.

@Antowayne Watson Here are a few of my favorites, some are not directly related to real estate but are great and will help in your real estate journey.

FHA requirements are actually pretty lenient and can be met relatively inexpensively and some sellers may allow you to do the work before closing.

I started a Partnership with some friends and relatives who mainly are Stock Market Investors.The purpose of the Partnership, in this case an LLC, was to purchase a $1.5 Million 3 Family in Brooklyn, All Cash.3 months ago I told everyone to pull out their cash in the Stock Market.They completed their stock sales a few weeks ahead of the Market falling off the cliff.I then closed on the 3 Family at a very good Price, collected a $40k buyer's commission as I am also the Buyer Broker, and just finished renting the 3 Units, signing the last apt lease in a few days, getting approximately $6k per month in Cash Flow for the 1st year.Not only that, I am securing an Investment HELOC at a 50% LTV, so roughly $750k, which I can use to investing in the Stock Market.I had already anticipated the fall of the Market as the inevitable Corporate Tax breaks had to wear off eventually.There just isn't enough consumers that benefited, in my opinion, therefore Corporate Revenues cannot increase and profits has to either stabilize as the max Corporate Tax breaks levels off.Really, only one way to go.I am anticipating the decline to last for a while.As an Trader, however, I will eventually buy long term growth stocks but also hedge it with PUTs in case I get in a bit too early.My friends and relatives are ecstatic as they probably saved a decline in their net worth by as much as a $1 Million.BTW, there is an old saying, "It is easier to make the 1st Million than it is to keep the 1st Million."

Is that related to bonds?

Even if I am just 20 years old I want by the end of 2019 to have already a Rental Property but until then I want also to get my relator license before.I'm writing this hoping that someone will want to help a young guy with big dreams by giving me at least some advices.

But if I set up an LLC (to buy rentals in the future of course), can you buy anything in the name of the LLC if it is business related?

A charitable donation deduction will be limited to 50% of your adjusted gross income or less and the relative tax benefit will also be affected by the amounts of other itemized deductions you claim.
