If so, self managing might be a good fit for you.I'm more of a "path of least resistance" person, so if I can pay someone else to do it, I usually will. 

How can I negotiate to buy a house that didn't sell at $749k on the open market, subject to the existing mortgage with cash over, seller pay the broker fee and i buy "as is, where is"?

You don't make enough to pay lawyers, fines or anything else from your cash flow. 

Or maybe you can partner with someone to borrow $10,000 today to make the repairs and pay them back $12,000 in one year (20% interest).You also need to really crunch the numbers.

Hi Allen,It seems odd the lender is pushing for the 10 year ARM product when you are willing to pay 0.50%.

Remember that the investor-friendly realtors listed on here just pay to be there.

Whether the property is $4k or $40k, you are still paying $5k to me to sell it.It should be obvious to you why this is, but it looks like it's not.

My question is, does the fact that we rented the home exclude us from being eligible on not paying taxes on the first $500k proceeds from selling after two years?

I'd really appreciate feedback with regard to whether I should move forward with investing in real estate, or to let the desire go for the time being: I'm 34-years old, married, have 2-children under the age of two, own a home, and have a stable and good paying job.

Hi everyone, Quick background, I'm a real estate investor with a high paying W2 job and credit score around 780.
