I'm 22 years old and I have 28k (not in the bank) saved up , I'm looking for advice on what to do next , as I have no college degree and going back to school is not an option at the moment .

@Nicholas Bailey It all depends on the quality of the building and the degree of renovation...if this is a non-renovated structure...you'll have a ton of headaches...if it has been brought to code and is suitable for occupancy with decent systems (HVAC, water heater, electric, plumbing), and on city water and sewer, you're golden...should be a great additional profit center for your investing...

Although driving for dollars may work to a certain degree, your most effective option is to obtain a list of distressed property owners (code violations, probate, inheritence, evictions, etc) and cold call them or mail them.

I went back to school and earned a business degree. 

Little about ourselves, my wife and I are both 21, she works full time and I work part time and attend college full time (BS Mechanical Engineering), combined we make roughly 50k a year, I have no student debt, all is payed out of pocket, and I have about 25% of my degree left (2 years) we have a little bit of CC debt (3k used, about 20k available combined) and I have a car loan from before we got married with around 12K left on it.

Brief background on me, I was born and raised in the North Jersey area and attended Rowan University in NJ where I earned a degree in Health and Exercise Science.  

You can try explaining to your tenant that setting the thermostat down to 50 degrees when it's 99 degrees outside is not EVER going to get the inside down to a meat locker temp of 50 degrees. 

I am a US Marine Veteran, SDSU Business Management degree graduate and have owned multiple businesses over the years, as well as involved with multiple investments in the past and currently. 

They can leave every light on 24/7  run a super computer and leave the Air conditioning at 50 degrees and you will have to pay .
