Once we get a few meetings under our belt and we see the breadth of experience and knowledge of the group we can incorporate mastermind sessions and have a more structured format.

Belt + suspenders! 

Definitely, something I'm thinking about once I have a few investments under my belt. 

Hello - can definitely help you out with number 4 - DSCR Loans are really ideal for people in your situation - not quite just starting out (have a couple of properties under your belt), but ready to scale.  

Congrats on having some experience under your belt and joining BiggerPockets!

I suggest getting your first property under your belt, getting it stable, getting your systems in place, then focusing on the second property. 

When I looked at the public record she literally had a speeding ticket and a seat belt violation....

have to play the hands that are dealt you.what mitigates it on the west coast is the property could go up 200 to 300k in 5 years. thats were the money is made.or maybe not.. but to me west coast rentals and rust belt rentals and what constitutes a deal are just apples and oranges. 

Both again replaced several other parts like capacitor, cleaned blowers etc. and mentioned the system is working fine.
