If you are looking for the perfect numbers to fit, the house itself won't be perfect for you.

The turn-key model is the perfect fit for these investors because they have full time jobs and need a team who handles their investments.Most serious investors I meet are looking for an effortless investment and the best way to achieve that is to go with an established turn-key provider who has their best interest in mind. 

Lowes has a perfect tile and it comes in a nice thin plank for diy setters as well as the big 12x24, which aren't that hard just don't do a 50% offset, AND it has bullnose tiles for edges.

If you're super outgoing, charismatic and attractive, sales could be perfect for you.  

Investor friendly, good work ethic and integrity.

I think 1031 is out of the question since the timing would have to be unbelievably perfect for it to work and I risk having to pay the tax anyways.I spoke with the realtor and then I spoke with my accountant again, and I think I'm going to just sit on it for now.  

I am making it a goal to purchase one investment property by the time I'm 24.Kim - I have been reading up and it sounds like the perfect way for me to get started - while keeping my mortgage nearly free if I decide to live in the other unit, which is what I would most likely do.

I wouldn't ever consider tearing off a perfectly good roof for no reason, but this one has multiple spots where its leaked through the ceiling.

Perfect thank you
