When you do find the perfect property, you want to move quickly.

You can Fix & Flip, you can Buy & Hold, you can do Tax LIens, you can do Multi Family - I was asked what I specialize in so here it is:I write this post to encourage those who want to be successful.

They'll get you an application, and contract you need to fill out with your tennant.Everything I've heard about mine is she has a stable job, 2 kids, and when I walked through the place looked and smelled great.Don't stereo type to quickly. 

Thanks @Ben HowardHere are some quick insights (lists) about the Sacramento County MFR 2-4 market:16,044 properties designated MFR 2-45,056 owners live outside Sacto County4,476 owners live outside of California884 were sold/purchased in last 365 days (~5.5%)2018 YTD: 3432017: 9432016: 8632015: 8124,520 have 100%+ equity796 are underwater12 are in Preforclosure263 marked vacant by USPS143 were purchased at auction by a trustee sale buyer1,445 have had a death of joint tenant in last 365 daysSince 2016, 676 transactions were off-market - and scanning through those buyers a lot appear to be investors as they've done 2+ deals or their LLC name indicates investment orientation.

No to real estate investment for the timebeing for me at least ( temporary)Because I already invested and I want to see how the market is doing, I want to learn more, networking.I am against real estate gurus who says invest in big amount and leave your job bla bla bpa, first when you invest in big amount and you do have cash the interest rate will be huge and this decrease your profit and yield/ cap , also high yield mean high risk second real estate as any business have good time and bad time so leaving your sustainable job and depends mainly on real estate investment is quite risky method, if one could generate double or triple his income real estate this is something else, I don't think typical person could rich quickly without high risk

I know the lender sometimes puts there own name to the deed to make sure collateral is in place as quickly as possible... and yes I agree not losing the deposit is critical for repeat business...   

Then after you purchase the asset, you have your attorney quickly and easily transfer the property for you.The cost of this is not much at all.

Marketing online can help you to find tenants quickly and with ease. 

A quick bit about me - I'm 33m, married, no kids.
