I was a teacher for 10 years and resigned this year to focus on my family and to build our real estate portfolio!

As long as they’re out and you can move in decent people that’s what I’d focus my energy on.

(I know what you're all thinking but worst case, she keeps the house, I'm out the 2,500 I give her to put down on it but I'll save twice that in rent in the next year)I hate to pass up the opportunity to buy the house for a good deal but I'm more focused on getting into a multifamily in a better area if it would effect me.

But you would recommend focusing on one area?

Banks are not going give a no-down loan as he suggests the new-buyer will get.I agree with you, the money needs to come from somewhere to payoff what's owed on the $20K.Jon, I'd suggest you NOT focus on this page in this book and I'd suggest you think of ways to shake up something for yourself where you are.In your setting, I'd ask who's your buyer?

Focus on the fundamentals and helping others.

My personal focus for any sfr or small multi-family I own, is to have them locked on 30 year fixed rates with conventional financing.

Though here and there I still perform for the home owner, my focus has shifted towards Home Flipping.

I know some would say that I should focus on paying down debt and working more shifts as a nurse, but in all honesty, working full-time as a nurse is really draining and makes me hate my life.
