@Roy Gottesdiener - I am not familiar with the rental market with Kings Mountain specifically, but there is grow happening in that area with the building of the Catawba Two Kings Casino. 

I have a 4 unit building in Long Beach CA and looking for alternative rental property insurance companies.

Building a team of like-minded, investor friendly people is an invaluable asset to have.

I suspect you understand that you are building wealth while losing money each month, so the calculation is not really so straightforward

I am hoping to build relationships with current investors, allowing me from to learn the tricks of the trade and strengthen my skills as a real estate agent along the way. 

Then I would focus on growing relationships and building your core 4.

Title, inspection, my walkthrough?!

Structurally look at the building itself. 

I am looking to get into Real estate investing/Wholesaling but I am still building my network and knowledge while playing soccer to make it Pro and going to school.
