I just signed up for the boot camps, so hoping that helps but very appreciative of any advice. :)

I would like the system set up where the tenant pays for the utilities.

I was already considering putting up a wood or vinyl fence to create a decent outdoor space for my tenant but that will only block the sight in the back. 

Hello BP Community, Why is P&I / Debt service included in NOI and not factored into operation expenses when adding up GOI ? 

Call up a wholesaler, agent, or lender and see if your situation dictates whether you should or should not buy that property, fix it up, take out a HELOC, or invest in that syndication.

If your 45k increased the value of the property 70k, and during the time you've owned the property the property value went up, you might refinance 50 or 60k out.

Just as a heads up as not sure which timeframe of BP podcasts, but before covid you could do a BRRRR and get all your money back out of the deal, today that is typically not the case and you will still have money in the deal - so just wanted to mention that.Lastly, you are way ahead of me and many others already as I cannot swing a hammer :)

Purchase price: $194,025The Sellers foreclosed mid-transaction and even had to lawyer up to get their lender to look at the Short Sale package.

They have been booked up all summer for the last few years and they are clearing more than what you would make on the properties if they were a traditional rental in just 3-4 months.

Some have found it pessimistic.Use the Enemy Method.
