I know some would advise against it but I say be the first to fix and flip.

And I feel I already learned many valuable lessons fixing up our old place.

This year I decided to sell, so I fixed it up, put it on the market, and got an offer.

Say I buy a house today for $150k at 6% on 20 yr fixed.

I'm currently working (slowly) on a Suzuki GS500F streetfighter bike, but house projects take priority over fixing toys.

Fix and flips, buy and holds, etc...this will determine your list selection.  

I also like the idea of a longer mortgage term because it shields you from interest rate and inflation risk for a longer time, and of course you can always pay down your principal faster if you'd like, so I'd look for a 30-yr fixed.  

First I broke things out into fixed and variable expenses in my business and also my personal expenses.

I am waiting on my paycheck to be able to fix the vehicle on my own, but for right now it is sitting in my driveway with visible damage to it.

My name is Tim and I am new to this community.I am looking at getting into investing with either a focus on fix & flips to either rent or sell (depends on the property.)
