As long as you have an exit and do not get stuck with the penalties and interest if you do not pay it off in time, its not a bad idea.

The first step is speaking with a loan office to get a better idea of what you qualify for, and then start figuring out where you want to live and analyzing deals.

It is up to you how far you take yourself using that skill.Now stop fighting and hold hands everyone.

If you buy it cheap it's a great idea.

You can get a pretty good idea of current occupancy just by looking through FF listings. 

@Kevin Robert- thanks ....1)  getting  strated now is not the best idea as the # of transactions are dramtically  down   2)  part timing  it  isnt a wise idea  either   ...I would recommend  passing your licensing  requirements /  finding an  experienced lender that you can  latch onto as a Jr type LO  or as a loan officer  assistant ...good luck

What sort of investments are you planning... fix and flip, buy and hold, etc.?

This will give you an idea of where to be on purchase price, what you need to do to make the property similar to others in the area, and what you can sell the property for (ARV).2.
