According to my friend who's a real estate agent in Charlotte it's all about area too, cuz according to here there's steady business in the larger cities for investors.  

I will update this post from time to time to tell everyone about my progress. 

Have a decent steady job working for the County with 33 years in now with my pension, and hope to go into a semi-final retirement to spend more time with my family and take my wife on a few trips we have talked about for too long.  

Keep everyone informed of your progress. 

I'll keep you posted on my progress and any key learnings!

Looking forward to seeing how things progress for the both of us!

I'm not looking for huge cash flow, but a steady income over time that, as I pay off each house, the income will increase drastically.

Unfortunately both loans are on interest-only so there is no progress on paying down principal.

The NROC gets applied as earnest money once they are ready for a mortgage.If, after the first year, they are making steady progress toward qualifying for a mortgage, you can do another lease and another option for year 2.

I prefer not to borrow tons of money, and play the game slower and steady.
