I've saved up a little bit of money, and with my brother as a partner, am looking to start house hacking with hopes of investing in his and my future.

That's enough money out of my pocket that I will work hard to ensure a unit is filled quickly.If the unit is not rented after 14 days, we drop the price.

Why should seller loose so much money?

If your wholesaling with an assignment contract, your end-buyer should have to also give earnest money.

In the hard money world this gets brought up a lot.

Also, ABB will often side on the guest side and refund them money.

There are clear affluent areas and forgotten areas of Janesville, but I will always stand by my opinion of tenant screening being the best defense of your rental property value.The Northeast side is, by popular opinion, one of the best areas to be in for newer duplexes and larger lots (for more money, of course) - take a drive down the side streets off of Wright to get an idea.The homes here are at a premium price, and rents are higher, but we've found the ROI is too low to start out in that area. 

We hadn’t considered the idea of a balloon when starting our investing journey and we’re happy to buy, hold, rent, and let it appreciate while we pay down the 30 year mortgage.

Yes I am investing in Alaska and Hawaii.
