We appreciate your continued support of BiggerPockets.com, and we look forward to helping you with your real estate investing!

lots of these folks moved back to "rust belt" states where they had family and other support network (3) did they have any "skin" in the deal?.

Otherwise, the people at Biggerpockets are really helpful and are quite supportive.

I need all the help & support I can get.Oh, did I mention that I was laid off from my day job.

Especially if you have a good credit and income to support it.

Thanks for all of your support this year!

My motivation was to build a rental property business that would allow me to have a semi-passive cash flow that would support my lifestyle and rapidly build wealth for retirement.With rentals, I "make money" at least 5 ways:1.

At least a couple years ago when I researched it, there was absolutely no case law supporting it.I think its RESPA 2608 that states the buyer has the right to choose the title company, and the seller is liable for up to 3 times the price of the title policy if they don't allow the buyer to choose.Most people including realtors don't know or follow this law.

Where are you from Edwinreiloans4u and what do you currently do as a full time profession and why do you wish to make the change to real estate investing and how do you think you will make the change to real estate investing from your current profession which will enable you to support yourself during the transistion to real estate investing?

Also if you purchase a property with high vacancy, one in which the income doesn't support the holding expense, is it worth considering a buy and hold until the vacancy is resolved to get back to black?
