Oh, and congratulations on having achieved so much at 19!

People think Im crazy but im working on my 4th property in this price range, so people that know now want to invest in my areas :-) Good luck, but this has worked for me in OH, MD, and VA.

oh and it is cashflowing $200 a month for me as well steadily

@Wayne not trying to make enemys, realtor is part time realtor, photographer buy trade, did not even know what property I was talking about untill he had his oh yea moment.

Oh, here's the article. http://closetheloophole.com/history

Oh, and I forgot to mention:The list was only about 64 people and I only sent them 1 letter, with about 10 pieces of returned mail.

Need some input please, would becoming a Realtor give me a huge advantage in both time and resources for my path to becoming an investor?

I do not make a good employee and have been self employed mostly :)

Yes, this avoids transfer tax, at least in OH.

I'm just trying to get started in Columbus, Ohio too doing buy and hold.
