In the areas we invest in, I'd say we're just at the cusp of switching from landlord to tenant pays for the brokers fees - give it another 1-2 years and the areas will be solidly tenant pays.Moral of the story, understand the dynamics of your specific target neighborhood so you can evaluate appropriately.

I am looking for your opinions on the next step.Some background information:- Currently renting a 1/1 for $1300 (long story, don't ask lol)- Purchasing a 3/1 with a detached 1/1 with conventional financing (4.3% rate at 5% down )- Monthly Payment will be $1250.

It has inspired me to get started and make my first move by acquiring a rental property.

My later experience in title inspired me to study real estate title and a bit of serendipity lead me to become Rick The Probate Guy.BTW, it's an Assignment that used to transfer and record change of iwnership of a trust deed note (or mortgage note). 

Very inspiring! 

Hey everyone, I've been reading through the forums, listening to the podcasts and I am truly inspired every time I'm on this site.

Not even a call to get my side of the story.

Long story short I grew up on a farm, worked everyday all day there until i was about 20.

I’ve just been surprised I haven’t read more stories about landlords taking the law into their own hands like taking the front door off saying it’s being repaired or cutting the water line etc….

During a podcast Brandon told the story of how he used/uses onlinejobs.ph to find VA's.
