This is a great network of folks and I'm looking forward to engaging in the forums and ultimately meeting some of you if there are any in-person networking opportunities forthcoming in the D.C. metro area. 

How long are you intending to hold the property and is it a value add opportunity or already fixed up?

And although our numbers are up, it still takes an excessive amount of work to find these opportunities on a consistent basis.Anytime I'm in a rut in my quest for deals, I always remember that thing my parents told me, that so many other kids heard from their parents growing up too: "It's not what you know, it's who you know."

Especially if you give the tenant no opportunity to cure.

Buuuuuuuuuuut many investors get greedy & try to buy the cheapest possible homes in the cheapest markets in the country in an effort to get more "cash flow" I've seen investors pass up awesome opportunities to buy high risk stuff because they would "cash flow" an extra $50 per month.....................$50 per month?

I hope to get the opportunity to learn from all of you as well as make contributions to the forum. 

If something did come up we have other methods to come up with the cash if necessary as our other cash on hand is for personal emergencies if necessary.

We must have the ability to access the property; with prior notes, in case of an emergency or maintenance issue.

@Jimmy Domer, when you're contemplating a diversification exchange (going from 1 to multiple properties) you are creating several opportunities for yourself. 

@Aaron Taylor Deal flow is king in this market and you either dedicate the time and money into marketing to put hundreds of potential opportunities into the funnel or you invest with someone who has it.
