Hey Alex,My name is Jagjit, and just like you I'm new to both RE investing and Biggerpockets.My plan is to start with multifamilies and I've talked to a couple of RE agents so far, and the conclusion I have is, in this high Interest rate market, its very difficult to find a cash-flow positive deal. 

i like your strategy.

Although I have not yet purchased my first tax deed property, I have been spending a considerable amount of time researching the tax deed sale process and the tools that can be used to streamline the process as much as possible- one of those tools being PropertyOnion.com.The website seems to provide a wealth of knowledge for pretty much any property you'd like to research, and provides data that could be useful to a variety of RE investors.

This deal seemed like a great opportunity for cashflow at a low purchase price.

I've also walked through homes like that and thought the same thing...then behold, they go under contract sometimes even above ask.

I like to keep things simple.

Seems like we might be missing some key info here.

Candidly, I like to send them to collection so it does report on their credit.

Its like asking whats a better career for someone who you know nothing about and they say they want to play in the NBA but you learn they are 4 feet tall.

Our bank offers Deposit only cards cards (looks like an ATM card) that we give to each tenant with their name on it.
