Anyway, Canadian Real Estate magazine puts out a good product, but they have a very aggressive sales staff pushing for advertisements.  

Currently I feel a little stuck in what I originally considered my strategy to to purchase my next property because of the push back we are getting from lenders pertaining to their appraisal approach. 

Later I hope it will allow us to better use this great community for sharing info and networking.As the story goes, we both saved some money, found out about all the great possibilities of Real Estate and after several months of learning we want to take action.Our focus got great push forward as we have met here some awesome and helpful people (talking of you Morgan Nilsen:) and we will focus on first buy of SFH in Indianapolis, IN... all remote!

Maybe the following month if the closing gets pushed back even further?

Interesting what is happening in Wash about the CFPB right now. 

Talk with your DWP Planner and push for a 200A panel at each building.

Our portfolio also was based on BRRR and we were self managing and thoroughly enjoyed once we finished the property only to have our new tenants put baby potatoes down the drain or block the toilet or break the washing machine only to spend a Saturday or Sunday trying to get someone to fix it.

Maybe I’ll do an update here in a month and again in two months on how it goes if people are interested :) Thanks to the bigger pockets community and the podcast for all the information which helped push me to feel confident enough to get into this first deal!

I'm finally showing up -  in order to push past my fear of all the unknowns in the hope of changing my family's financial future, and I'm truly excited about the possibilities.

what happens is investors set them selves up for this stuff by choosing properties with higher Paper returns..if you buy in Memphis at 5 and 6% returns and over 1000 rents your normally fine.. and basically any area.. its when you try to push those returns up that your risk goes up with it..
