If we invested for just a 12 month thing, most investments do not make sense especially real estate.

One of the biggest mistakes that investors make is they are not clear on what it is they want to invest in, and what their goals are with their investments. 

This means cash flow isn't possible pretty much for the life of the loan but we can theoretically sustain that if it's a good investment, and we'll have a solid tenant who takes care of the space.2.

I sit on the Board of Advisors for FTF, and have invested in more than a half-dozen deals (average investment of $25K) in the past 18 months. 

My team sees deals all the time, so if you are looking to invest, let me know :)

Finding investment properties in Lexington can be challenging right now, which is typical in many places.

We also don't know the exact numbers of your prospective rental investment (including taxes, insurance, PM fees, etc.).Once you know all of those things, calculating this shouldn't be a huge task.If I had to ballpark it you'd be cash flowing perhaps $800-$1,000/month on the duplex given the rental amounts you ball parked.

Question for the masses: is it worth it or beneficial to obtain a real estate license while investing?
