Walking into this home was just difficult to do, due to the stench.

hi from austin tx. so been hanging around here trying to figure out how i wanted to get started. well figured it out. i am selling my house, cashing it out, because i do not want to use it as a rental. bought another house that i will hack then turn it into a rental in a cpl years but in the mean time i am looking at additional properties in areas outside of austin even out of state.my goal is 10 properties before i retire, from my current job, in 6 years. i am looking especially in rural areas.

This also keeps you from having to go back to the utility to pay additional deposits or provide references - every time you lose a tenant!

And please include the following:-How much do you have to invest-Do you have additional equity partners-How are your personal financesJust to be honest, you're unlikely to be able to invest in the tri-state area, even in Suffolk County.

Once the seller has your money and if you need to walk it will be harder to get your deposit back.

In addition, is the property rented or not, is it Section 8 or Regular Tenant.

Recommend walking with contractor before buying and what's the best way to figure out rehab cost?

Let me know if you want additional information.Stephanie

If the amount that is owed is more than the value of the house then either walk away or work on a short sale.
