For me personally I wanted to jump right in and do 30-35 deals my first year, but then realized I should take it a little slower for the first year and really just absorb everything.

I immediately sent some colleague and follow requests because I realized there were some awesome people in that thread who really knew the market.

But, while I've done okay in the past, I realize now how lucky I've been.I'm here to learn.

BP has helped so many people, it has even helped people that did not realize they received help.

I choose to take the tenant because I realize most of these tenants are living paycheck to paycheck.

This is due to the fact that institutional buyers have not yet jumped on board and also that other investors can't realize the value.Its amazing being on the ground and having first pick at these deals.Thanks for reading and have a great day

At some point when the county realizes their revenue from the code violation pay offs is actually going down due to the new 50% requirement, they may change it back, or become more flexible.

To recognize that just because you switched from one property of a particular type to another property of a particular type, you have not ceased your investment activity and actually realized your gain.Flipping doesn't qualify.Again, if Michael says I'm crazy, listen to him.

But if you also considering your Personal Balance Sheet, then tenant is (a) paying down principal for you and (b) allowing you to realize appreciation gains while.
